Crowders Mountain – Predestination

I have climbed a lot at Crowders Mountain in North Carolina in my day.  It is the local crag where I go if I don’t have time for a full day epic but absolutely must scratch the climbing itch.

Most of the time when I am at Crowders Mountain I climb on Practice Wall, Davids Castle or Red Wall which are all on the east side of the crag.  I like climbing on that side of the mountain during the summer because because it is shaded by the sheer walls.

Today I decided to climb on the west side of the crag on Two Pitch Wall which in actuality is a misnomer.  I guess the name came from the ability to break up the climb into two pitches because breaking it into two pitches is definitely not a necessity.

I hate when people give beta on a route when you don’t ask for.  To me its like spoiling the end of a really good movie.  So I leave you with this… the crux is at the very top of the climb and there are many variations.  Choose wisely.
