First pitch doesn't have bolts, and sparse gear but climbing is very easy. Belay is a new u-bolt and carrot. Second pitch initially up through 3 carrots and tried to the left of the 3rd bolt, but wasn't my cup of tea (horizontal hold was very polished). Went down and to the right and found it really great juggy climbing through the overhang. Back to the left for a #1 cam and then a bolt before the final very easy headwall with some gear before topping out. Belay from the block 5 metres beck where there are 2 older carrots and a new u-bolt

This is not a sports climb. Down low trad gear, and not much of it (and not all good either), and then one ring to the anchors. Second pitch has about a half dozen rings, but the last bit at the top is run out above a ledge, with not many trad options (I traversed left a bit to find some and ended up coming up directly under the carrot abseil anchors). Still good fun, but not advised if you're only just leading the grade.

There is a line of glued in Petzl fixed hangers directly below, and above to the left of, the belay cave, compared to the topo in the guidebook that goes left and up the arete to the cave. The cave has belay chains and an extra carrot, which means the whole thing is now a retro-bolted sport route, no doubt to prevent beginners from coming to grief.

P1 - protection a bit tricky to find and fairly runout. some tri-cams are handy but not essential for the horizontal placements.
P2 - not as scary as i was led to believe. there is a bolt about 1.5m above the cave and one 1.5m from the top. looped an 80cm sling around a large chicken head on the arete in the middle. the climb has a bit of spice to it but I don't think its 3 stars quality. |
