Ascents in Northern Wall

Starts with slabby tricky goodness (rested), make friends with a bush, then a ramble up and past an easy diagonal crack, and then a tricky slopey pull over the top which nearly stumped me. But three or so tries and retreats and it was actually quite satisfying.

Must have been fitter when I put this up

Really good climbing

Wet pocket right before the bolt up top made clipping suuuuuuper hard. Really turns on for a couple metres and was initially shut down after the bolt on the invisible crimps but figured it all out and didn’t feel so bad. Feels 25 to me. Great climbing! Will be back for it when the necessary jugs before the crux aren’t a pond haha.

Dogged the hard bits, a heady lead for sure! Pumpy! Big regrets taking my jacket haha. Loved the crazy full lower body rest before the crux

I think we avoided the crux by climbing just L of the bolt

Climbed for trad practice.

Onsight, with a bit of directional beta from Goshen (which I have seemed to ignored and climbed a small variation to the original line...)

Not run out

with Kim, stay roped up for traverse to rap tree! Crumbling rock under foot and exposed!
