Ascents as Attempt by Matt Pascoe

Warming up. Struggled with the back 3 pocket move. Lowered off after a bit.

Biggest holds in the world. All miles apart. Couldn't get the move to the bridge after 2 from the draw tries. Lowered off.

All but the top sorted. Not bad after 2 hard burns.

A tough nut.

Fell going for crux tufa. Lowered.

Wrecked. Made it to the crux setup

Couldn't do crux to get clip the clip in.....

Again....

Too tired for a good burn. Lowered at dropknee crux.

Many sits. Only to loweroffs before roof section.

Slipped after first crux. Then to 7c+ anchors.

Got crux moves sorted using Annie beta. Lowered off after that.

So close but no cigar. Skipping the last bolt is exciting but necessary if you're short. Too gassed to get to the top.

Sat at 4th. Bolted for the obvious tufa but the path of least resistance is up the ramp. Bolts 4 and 5 are badly positioned. Couldn't pull the slimper moves at the top.

Warm up to the end of the tufa section. 6bish.

Warm up to the hard bit.

Struggled.

Couldn't do first boulder.

Working roof crux only.

More roof crux and out if rest.

Took a bit of work to figure out the tufa bit. Couldn't hold the greasy crimps to get to the higher crimps. Lacking in air index to use the invidious undercling.

Powered out through roof. Where are you fitness???

Found this hard. Couldn't do all the moves. Bailed before reaching the black rock. 1st day of climbing in a while.

Strenuous move over the lip. Perhaps easier with some reach. Couldn't actually get the business move done.

16:04 T-29.4,H-6.2,DP-14.4. Strong onsight attempt but with the DP so high I just couldn't put enough power into the crimp at the crux to do the move in completion. Should go next shot with cooler temps. All the other moves were ok.

This thing is desperate! Bailed after too many sits on my on sight attempt.

Hard down low on the start of the tufa and very crimping in the second part. Just topped the day of that was full of sitting on the rope...

Working 2nd bolt boulder.

This is sooo steep. Very powerful climbing. Unable to do crux moves.

Working 2nd bolt crux. Many methods but nothing solid

Working 2nd bolt crux. Many methods but nothing solid

1st. Powerful and technical. Seems very sustained on this go. Unable to get to the top. Will need to suss out more holds from above next ttime.

No sequence found for the start yet. Something sort of pencilled in though...

Pinged off a hold low down but then was unable to do the moves up high. Long moves off slopes. Didn't/couldn't get to the top.

Top rope- 4 distinct cruxes. Each harder than the next. 3 of the 4 cruxes sorted. Unable to do any of the moves on the last crux. Pulled through and did last moves to anchors.

TR- fell at 2nd crux. Higher on final crux but not all sorted.

TR- Fell at 2nd crux. All moves sorted on final crux.

TR- Fell at 2nd crux. Final crux sequence completed. Very tic tacky and tenious. Fingery.

Top rope- 4 distinct crux. Each harder than the next. 3 of the 4 cruxes sorted. Unable to do any of the moves on the last crux. Pulled through and did last moves to anchors.

TR- Fell on 2nd crux. DId moves quickly then started on final crux sequence. Made progress but still haven't climbed through the final crux completely.

Warm-up putting draws back up. Bailed before crux.

Got a start sequence sorted now. Lowered at the 3rd bolt

Couldn't hold the tufas today...

ha, knew this was going to have something nails about. Something very familiar with the crux hold type and style of movement. Just like the Bluies on a humid day.

Not ready for the power required on moves like these.

An Amusing attempt at glory. Made it to the 2nd before bailing.

Made it to the first draw then had a sit. Wrong route.

Couldnt get the sit down bit.....
