What's the English word for the end of climbing?
« on: July 26, 2005, 05:14:12 AM »
Somehow I just can't remember what's the verb for the action a climber Lemming does, when it is about to reach the top of the wall.  You know, the part where he is transitioning from climber to walker.  There's gotta be a more succinct word than "transitioning from climber to walker".

Anyone knows?  Thanks.

I always referred to it as "Vaulting"

To rise? To hoist?
