Ascents of Shangri-La as Onsight

Awesome chimney! Led 2/3 main pitches what a hoot

Classic adventure ramble. Good fun

Incredible adventure! Would highly recommend. Slight runout on p2 we found up the chimney.

Love the goat.

lead with pre-placed gear.

Second pitch chimney is great. Shame it doesn't go the whole way up the cliff!

Lead pitch 1 & 2 as link

Quite the adventure... Linked pitch 1 & pitch 2, and pitch 3 (the walk) & pitch 4. Second pitch (chimney) managed to be really quite intimidating and psychological although, in retrospect, the grading was spot on. Fourth pitch has some loose-ish hollow stuff and other weirdness, but easier climbing. The final pitch- the 14 pitch- is quite lovely.

It's pretty subjective but I found the chimney pitch to be the most tiring pitch climbing I've done even though I'd agree It's only grade 12. Pitch 4 could do with a better description. Pitch 5 could do being about 3 times as long, It's a really nice bit of climbing

Found P2 harder than P5. Linked P1+2. P3 nature walk simply delightful. P4 had some superb exposure, view, position - the size of the chimney is truly "epic!"

L p 3 & 4.

You could bury me in the little garden (pitch 3).

Experiential! Some sections lack gear, others lack good rock, but it's certainly cool
