not one for trip reports

Touchstone Wall has humbled me for quite some time now. The bottom 2-4 pitches are the most difficult and I've got them dialed from climbing them so much. I did it with a Silent Partner over two days. I employed the continuous loop method and I love it. I fixed the first pitches then went home got some sleep, then came back in the morning and fired the rest. I have a ledge, but when I live 1 hour away, and I was only a few pitches off the deck, its hard to justify spending the night.
The top pitches went free and easy. They go at 5.9 and many can be linked together. Regretably I got to the tree late in the evening (7:30pm) and didn't do the 50 foot 5.9 sport climb to get to the true summit. I'd rather get down with light in the sky, than epic into the evening. It was a good choice because I needed my headlamp to hike down the trail.
If your in the area, I'd rope up with ya on something. Plan on a day to get down here, 1.5 days of climbing, and a day to get home.
Ditch the job. Climbing is more important. Its like the man is paying you NOT to climb. Is it worth it?
