Ascents of Fingerless Pho Man having Beta

Powerful at the crux or jam yourself

gave up at the tufa at the start

TOP ROPE : passed the tufa , but then try again and couldn t do it . very pumpy. did pass the traverse going with the foot lower , and using fist jam

Got it done without any jamming, fun route

Need to remember my beta in the roof...

One hard move which involve hand jamming a crack and then pumpy, tricky and scary to the top.

Retreat because the upper part was too wet and dirty to climb. Nice 6a slab until this part though.

Best Splitter in cat ba. good holds deep in the crack.

crack climbing

Nice crack. Just a few hard moves in the overhang.

Crack is too harsh to jam, but there is another way.... Slightly less painful. More like a 7a

Felt hard to me for 11c through the thuggy layback/jamming section. Fun overall, good climbing.

I didn't like the bolt positions on the steep wall. Ended up grabbing the draw - wtf! The horror!
