Intense belaying as Alex laybacked/face climbed the ow start, not an ow technique in sight! The hardest climbing he did all day.
Sat to check out a stuck green totem down low, would come out with a little effort. |

Unreal jam session up top, so worth it. Wanted a second lap, this time starting with the offwidth. Felt like I battled up it for ten minutes before looking down to see I was barely off the ground. Gave up on that and went back to the corner start.

Despite appearances, the direct start is way waaaay better and protects fine with a #4 at the back of the crack. Bit flared but… maybe best not to fall on it.

Picked up Canadian Dane from the side of the access track cause he was looking for a partner. After faffing up neon philharmonic we learnt that he was only here for the day before leaving again so onto the 3 star classics it was.
Got an absolute masterclass in offwidth technique on the direct start, super valuable stuff. Putting some actual technique to the grunting... Still fuckin nails, but felt way less desperate. The rest didn't feel bad at all, feet everywhere you need them at any point. Gotta work on my pump management badly tho

according to Heath Black episode on the layback podcast they did it back in the day with only 5 hexes… and I’m still shitting my pants with a double rack of cams and quads in purple + green… How does a gumby develop true grit and overcome irrational fear on a splitter crack with gear that’s probably safer to fall on than bolts…….. |

Such an awesome route! But very long and exhausting.
Attempted the original start but quickly bailed to the non-masochistic start. A few tricky moves in the first half that was dispatched with a bit of thinking required. The diagonal hand crack was a beautiful line, but sustained with limited feet. Got exhausted by the sheer length of the climb and also ran out of #1 and #2 cams, so had to improvise by running it out a bit, recycling and shuffling cams. Fortunately all the placements are bomber! Crack widens to #3 size at the top (yay I have protection again) and eased off significantly to my great relief! Definitely a classic! |
