Probably the hardest 21 I've ever been on. Boulder moves up to start traverse to first bolt are awkward and not well protected, even with clip stick.

	21 Hard	★★ The Jewel Thief - with MS	Sport 28m		davedave
Humbling sit at the crux, despite beta and draws on. 2*?stainless clip and go biners on non-stainless mallions on the anchor bolts - suspect these are the famed "cast" stainless carabiners with a history of cracking ? Couldn't see any obvious cracks today. [Per Mikls old post - "cast biners held between 160- 2000kg"]

Should have known this would be hard being the easiest route at the crag! Long and sustained! Fell just after the next bolt after the traverse, before gaston move. Really nice and will definitely get on again to get that tick!

sat once to try figure out the crux, which wasn't obvious to me, and again at the second last bolt when I got so pumped I dropped a draw which miraculously bounced off a tree and landed on the ledge
