Ascents of Wings for Life as Onsight

4hr 45min.

Beautiful views, easy climbing and perhaps the most over bolted climb on earth make for a pretty chill climb. Linked pitches 1,2,3 and 4,5,6 and did the harder ones as singles and linked the last two. Walk down was crux.

Wow what an epic day out!!! The two crux pitches are absolutely amazing and very different. They definitely give this route it’s stars. Pitch 7 is a wildly exposed overhanging layback corner, pretty freaking gnarly. Pitch 9 is an insanely airy traverse out across tufa and broccoli rock, passing right over the lip of the giant cave, nothing below but a couple of hundred metres of air. So epic and amazing! The exposure is mind blowing. Absolutely loved it ♥️

Find the famous finger-gluer on the way over to serve as the guidebook you forgot. Start by the painting of a chubby wheat sheaf. Punch the sharp rock at least twice before pitch 4. Sing tanglefoot above pitch 6. Squat out so much rope drag stringing 7 and 8 you top out looking like kim. Avoid the bird vomit before the final pitch. Eat 3 cucumber sandwiches. Descend in psychra and your best rave shirt.
