Burly but fun! There might have been some power screaming... Took a sit at the first crux, wasn't quite ready to commit to the moves, but got through it eventually. with David

A rad climb! At least on par with Eurydice if not better. Keeps you thinking all the way up. Smeary feet down low gets you to the crux involving slopey holds in a corner. Then through a roof with good holds, and nice airy climbing all the way up after that. Beautiful and amazing climb! The start of pitch 2 is quite scary. At grade 17+, there was no protection and it was directly above the pitch 1 anchor. Factor 2 fall on anchor is definitely possible so be careful!

Took a while on the low crux with no warmup, got up and down a few times before committing to a jam/layback combo, the gear is good but you won't be stopping for a bit. Pitch one is long and terrific with several mini crux sections to keep you working. Pitch 2 is harder than 14 off the belay I reckon.

Wow- really fantastic, from the tricky little technical section near the start to the couple of more muscly sections further on. Not logging an onsight as my rope became stuck in a notch & so I had to descend to redirect it. The 17 section is soft. Great climb.

With Mark. I am still in love with Pitch 1 and the crux at 5 metres is still hard (but I got it clean this time - yay!)1st Oct 05 with Cate. An absolute corker, the first pitch is simply stunning. And a surprisingly hard crux which took me quite by surprise in the first 5 metres.
