A really nice link up to get used to the top of stench - maybe a touch stiff for 23 but worthwhile!

Backlog. I originally did this ground up gear in hand before the bolts. Felt like 22. I've also done it with the bolts and is nowhere near 22. 20 ticket at best. Such a shame such a nice trad climb had to be vandalized by some criminals in our community!

Top roped it clean with a lot of grunting and groaning. For the big move down low went up with my R hand and a R drop knee.
Would be too hard for me to lead at the moment I think...

Tried direct beta through the crux today instead of going left. Felt like less moves and less delicate. Felt good up to a point and then got stuck. Will need to try and work something out.
