Ascents of Pigs In Space

Needed some help with the start, really great climb

2nd go, great position. Low end 26 imo.

Sick! Punching through the boulder was a fight ... you need to work it to get anything out of those feet! Had a chat with Kurt beforehands about onsighting. He said that you needed a mixture of discerning calculation, and firm commitment. Great advice, and it came off. One of the best pitches Ive done in the Glasshouse ... although its a shame about the prolific ticking in the upper section.

Finally! Probably my most significant ascent so far, not just in terms of grade but more for the beauty of the route and the efforts I put in it. Some people will be relieved that I can, at last, stop talking about it!

Pulled on thinking i was just going to hang the draws but I felt really good at the crux and continued climbing. Put alot of work into this one but i couldn't of done it without some very awesome belays. Thanks Kilroy Corey Low

Second go. Great route

Found the start a bit easier with some sneaky heel-hook beta I was given. Nearly dropped it at the high undercling crux when I forgot about my feet but managed to keep it together. Overall probably on the easier side of 26 with the crux moves probably being at the start.

Definitely a highlight of the trip, great face climbing reminiscent of the Bluies

This is such a damn fine route. So happy to get the send, and on the day's first burn! Had such a nice flow, felt like I cruised the crux and felt far less punishing than the previous session. Happy I got the tick before the downgrade, too! I can't say I agree with this route being downgraded, especially compared to a heap of the other 25s around, and some of the 26s this would fit that category. But maybe thats just my own confirmation bias...

2nd shot. Didn't like the look of the undercling at the crux so reached past it to a two finger gaston shoulder move! Never screamed so much during a crux before.

2nd shot after coming close to onsight. Wow!

Bit of a fitness lap, had to work pretty hard for it this time.

Very cool line that deserves more than 2 stars.

Went through bottom section really quickly and had heaps left for crux. Awesome to finally get this

Second go was like night and day after the first. A cool breeze picked up, friction appeared, and the moves flowed seamlessly. A great pitch!

Very classic line highly recommend

There we go.

Always scary off the ledge. Then really good.

Figuring it out. Feel confident it'll go soon.

Making progress.

Second attempt was bad, with tactical mistakes and confused beta. After I fell, I made the most of my hangdogging situation to dial in the mid section, the clipping positions and all these small details that will lead to an imminent send!

Really hard. Pretty much draw to draw

Only one hang on this attempt. Hopefully will go next session.

New high point today. Not enough beans.

Felt really good coming back to the route. Still no dice. Maybe next time

Held on through the start searching for the elusive rest jug that never materialised. Fell just before top crux putting up draws due to pump. Awesome sustained technical face climbing with almost no rest.

Fell going to side pull at top crux. Found a better, more repeatable sequence for the crux to avoid the slopey right undercling
