multi-pitch
Several belay stations
Multi-pitch describes a rock climb too long to complete in a single rope length, requiring climbers to stop at intermediate anchors called belays: It's a multi-pitch route—five pitches to the summit.
Each pitch is one rope-length section.
Multi-pitch climbing demands more gear, time, and route-finding skill than single-pitch climbs.
