25 | ★★★ Paint God | 20m | ★★★ Classic | ||||
13 tie-ins over 5 sessions. Puzzlingly kept falling over and over again at the red-point headwall crux. Good thing that came out of it, got used to the fall.
Had to say a prayer for the send burn and God was Painted (or I was painted in God).
PS According to Steve, Lloyd is a painting genius; hence the name as a reference to his ability. |

Awkward start, jug hauling, then a fun little arete section. Not a bad warmup, but nothing to write home about. General consensus was that the 20 was harder
