Great route! I love the powerful start and would really enjoy seeing it done on trad. Lovely crack climbing through the middle to a trickery top. Will need more cleaning

An excellent crack climb! I set up the TR as we don't have enough trad gear yet. It was great seeing my wifey tick this with one rest. Lots of fun!

Woot! My first lead on Trad. The pro seemed reasonable and it was a good crack warm up before Kodak Moment.

Mixed trad 130m, 20 Classic
An excellent introduction to Multipitch climbing! Great exposure over a beautiful view of the Three Sisters. The whole climb is well worth a repeat, but especially the final grade 17 variant.

Not worth the star and more of a high 16. Still worth it though.

Some nice crack! there are alternate finishes for this one. Tried both - Either layback with your feet on BAC or use the sharp arete to get up the overhang and onto the face! some nice moves!
