★★★ Wings of the Wind 5.10-

Born from the vision of Jerry and Annette Daniels, Wings of the Wind starts at the base of the Pena Gorda following a series of ramps and faces to join the upper pitches of Filo Noroccidental making a superb route of 14 pitches. Completed in 2020 over a 2 month period the pair lead bolted every pitch to make an authentic journey through the immaculate stone of the Pena De Bernal.

Pitch 4: there are two options for climbing pitch 4, one goes straight up the gold face at 10+ and the other starts slightly to the left and follows an arching curve at 10- but can be french freed.

Pitch 6: From the top of pitch 6 use the cable hand rail and walk 50 feet to the right to the start of pitch 7.

Pitch 7: At the top of pitch 7 coil the rope and walk on clean rock trending right to the start of the trail on the right hand side of the wall. Follow the trail down to the base of pitch 8.

Pitch 10: 4 alpine draws are very helpful for eliminating rope drag on pitch 10! The are needed at the first three bolts after the step-across move.

Pitch 11: bypass the two glue in bolts and continue up to the next set of anchors at 40m.

Pitch 13: at the top of 13 use new glue in bolts 5m past the old rusty anchor bolts to belay.

It is possible to link pitches 2 and 3. pitches 5 and 6. pitches 8 and 9 can also be linked but a running belay of 30 feet is needed due to the length of the pitches.
