H: John Prine Wall

This wall lies between the Landing and the Dog Walk, both far to the climber’s left of the great staircase. It is shaded by four large trees close to its base. It is named after the great singer/songwriter John Prine, a victim of the Covid-19 pandemic. As Bob Dylan put it, “Prine’s stuff is pure Proustian existentialism. Midwestern mind trips to the nth degree. And he writes beautiful songs.”

Each route here has the name of a John Prine song.  For those climbers unfamiliar with his oeuvre a few lyrics are included In the description of each route.
