Ascents of Hectic Penguins

More like 23. Took a big whip. Wish I had clipped.

As a longer finish of walking on ceilings

Felt awkward and tough to clip. Cool arete though.

Need to come back to this to send but great lead on from septic, Bouldery as but fairly easy with right beta

A great extension to Septic! Tricky exposed move off the ledge and kinda hard to read. Barn doored off at first then got it next go. (Used two opposing quick draws on the bolt after the ledge as the previous bolt is a long way down!)

Really tough crux

very committing and scary and hard to reach the bolts to put the draws up.i reckon 23 if joined with septic without resting on the ledge

Very pleased to get the onsight on this one. Quite intimidating moves onto the right of the arete but surprisingly ok once you commit. Classic extension to Septic Penguins making a great single pitch climb.

Still fumbled a bit with my beta but smooth sailing once I got the reachy move up the arete. Now just need to get the red point

Gassed myself working out the beta on the onsight attempt

Great exposure - took a fall which got the adrenalin going!

Great finish for Septic. Super exposed arete.

Fun and hard boulder problem 20 meters up in the air. Great exposure. Also, if you're any shorter than 175, it may well be near impossible.

Easy when you know the movements. Hard when you go in blind!

Had a few EoD attempts but couldn’t get it. I think I was camming the wrong foot, which was not giving me enough reach up the arete. Lives up to its name, feels pretty hectic!
