Ascents of DNA as various tick types

Punt.

still warm up for me

Fell on the going to the anchor on the flash attempt. Do not underestimate this jiggy climb as it is extremely steep. Cool climbing tho.

Putting the draws on and showing rest beta for Roger Parkyn glorious ascent. He ignored my rest beta, and almost triumphed, grinding to a halt at the high arete. I enjoyed watching him learning on the fly how to clean draws of a steep route. A particular highlight was when he managed to get his shoelace bow caught on a quickdraw and was stuck hanging horizontally. I was impressed with the good condition of the climb given the many thousands of ascents since I climbed it a dozen years ago. Still a banger.

dropped before anchor both attempts

Aaah, today I found rests! And then realised I don’t actually know how to do the last draw efficiently 😩 This route is so tiring, I only have one go and then a struggle to clean 😅 Now do I come back for it tomorrow before I fly home 🤔🤷‍♀️

I spent and waste too much time looking for places to rest and not finding them 🙈 no real crux but route gets harder incrementally the higher you go 🥹

Wow! I get why it is raved about. The crux is finding the rests which I haven’t been able to do 🤪

Put the draws on the route

Amazing route, but extremely pumpy

Last go of lapses

Very good session, with Trela for starters, and then nearly 4 laps in DNA with a fall at the last draw.
