Ascents of Heretic by Bernd Schiffer having trad-cpr or ascent-date

What an epic adventure! Really good and sustained climb, almost all pitches. I led p2-5, Michael led p1. When I seconded p1, I thought pulling through the crux was way harder than a 15. I'd grade that a hard 16 or even a 17. P2 is just fun, cruising up the crack at solid grade 17. P3 is the money pitch. Getting up the flake is already bold, but the crux is the corner, where I pulled on good hand and awful feet. Lost my footing once and then pulled through, ending head-first in a bush. I think I got lost on p4, ending too much on the left. Had to traverse right back to the corner. P6 is a tough 16, but so much fun to climb. Highly recommend this route!

Repeat. Lead p1+p5. Michael led p2-4. Mark's first multi-pitch. Now I led all pitches in two ascents. First one still trickier than 15. I'd give it a 16. Overall fantastic climb. One of (if not the) best at that grade.
