Ascents in The Fossil Cave as Red point

Such a good route

Came off on the flake, head jam slipped, even though I had flashed it on the previous route. Rest of the route is really nice, and surprisingly clean and dry. Don’t forget a jam is a jug.

I think it was the most efficient beta?? but man were there a lot of moves through the crux

Went up and put the draws on, then sent first shot! Bucket sized jugs the whole way, the big moves give it the grade

2nd go, perhaps used to be a jurassic pump, but there are multiple no hands rests which make it easier than rabbit trap imo. Great fun though!

I must have missed the jugs on this 17

Jugs

Good. To clean this up today. Great climbing to a hard lip turn. Good fun

Second go, on second day. Cool knee bar beta.

Finally went down after 3 sessions.

4th shot of the day, around 12 tries overall.

Great moves, none of them are too hard but the pump adds up near the end.

I couldn't do the big move from the rail to the jug on the lip so instead i used the small sloper edge on the lip with many toe hooks to stop the pendulum cut.

First time I've broken a hold and fallen. Fear not, it definitely wasn't essential and i don't know why the hell i even touched it.

I took the pikers finish cos I've already done the chains years ago. I was definitely happy to get this one!

This was still hard. Burly undercling.

Finally,done putting draws on today

Cool climb with interesting varied moves!

Big holds but very good. Happy to get it 2nd shot.

Cool Bananas! Specially love the move going over the lip!

Head jam is the key to getting on the ledge. Great climb.

finally!

I seem to have slipped on a bannana peel.

great route. went 4th go

Rabit stew for dinner!

one of the hardest 17 ive ever done, prob cause i struggle a bit on traverses!

good fun roof climbing, jugs all the way

With Gail. A definite sandbag .. but what else is new for a lot of the climbing here!
