Description Suggest change

Usually only the first three pitches are climbed as a start variation to Outer Space. Remorse is a 6-7 pitch route that can take you to the top of snow creek wall if desired but is rarely done in its entirety. It shares some pitches with Outer space. For this post I will describe the first three pitches of Remorse to be used for Outer Space start variation.

Pitch 1: (5.6) Follow easy cracks up a low angle slab trending left. Belay under the roof of RPM on a large slung horn. This pitch is fairly dirty and wandering but the climbing is easy and protects well.

Pitch 2: (5.8) Traverse left along a large flake that you can undercling. Make some sloppy moves off the slab and continue left and then up until you come to a large ledge with a ramp on your right. This is the same ledge where Psychopath begins, which  will be to the left of where pitch 3 of Remorse continues up the ramp on the right side. Build a gear anchor in a crack of your choosing.

Pitch 3: (5.8) Follow the ramp up to two tree ledge. This pitch can be climbed either up the slab and then traversing left towards the crack or following the wide crack from the bottom with some off-width moves and laybacking. Pass several trees and make a couple easy moves through a squeeze chimney that is made from a large fallen boulder. Fixed anchor belay at two tree ledge.

At this point most people will continue on to Outer space. A few feet to the right is the beginning of crux pitch (pitch 3) of Outer Space. 

Location Suggest change

To the right of RPM. The trail will take you basically  to the bottom of the start of Remorse. 

Protection Suggest change

Gear to 3”. Use the same rack as recommended for Outer Space.
