Ruper start

Upper Ramp rappel route. To descend from Upper Ruper, do the 100' Chockstone Chimney rappel to the Upper Ramp. From the base of Chockstone Chimney, scramble up a short slab and down the other side to a bolted rappel anchor by the tree shown in the photo. <em>Note: tree is now gone.</em> A 60' rappel takes you to a stance with bolts and chains. An 80' rappel takes you to Vertigo Ledge. Follow Vertigo Ledge uphill until it meets the West Face trail.

Approaching Ruper traverse

The fifth pitch of beautiful upper Ruper; October 13, 2002.

The beginning of the upper wall, prime setting, prime climbing.

The 6th pitch traverse showing sufficient protection opportunities. While the Ruper Traverse on P3 may feel more exposed, I personally find this traverse to be a bit more spicy on account of the poor rock quality. However, more than enough protection opportunities exist; just look around!

Unknown climbers on the 5th and 6th pitch. One party is on the top/6th pitch. The leader of another part is most of the way up the 5th pitch.

Unknown climber midway up pitch 5 (2nd pitch above the Upper Ramp).
