Ascents of In the Groove

Always walked past this. Glad to have had a go today. Strenuous and balancy lackbacking..hard. Kept coming off between 4th and 5th bolt. Possibly cooler temps could help

saw some recent activity and I was inspired. (Read: someone else cleaned the sand off yay). As first climb I planned to dog it trying to warm up. Turns out I needed to aid it to get anywhere. Something to come back for when I'm in a sport climbing mode at the theej (which is a rarity). After our shutdown the heavens opened and the glorious red triangle frog took to the trees, presenting a cathedral phenomenon I had never seen before! But then I got rocked by leeches and played host to one the whole drive home. Rollercoaster of a day with minimal climbing but many mems

sandy. v tired today

Cleaned and ticked up, jump on people

Who knows how good this climb could be after a good clean!
