Fun traverse onto the face. Then pause to work out where the holds are then jugs to the top. Great exposure

Had my eye on this for a while. The route offers a lot; tricky traverse, off-width crack, stemming, slopers, and jugs! Soo gooood!

Started off trying to go far left and basically walk up the 'steps', but then came back down to the bolts and actually climbed the 'ladder' directly under them like the route seems to intend.

It was a little scary getting into the chimney, as it feels like I ran out of good holds before I was high enough to get my back against the wall, though eventually realised I was high enough to shuffle my shoulders against it. Was still kind of scary for the first few moves as half of my body felt like it was dangling into the void without a solid wall behind it.

Climbing the chimney was pretty straight forward, though be careful not to climb too high, as it's easy to climb above the final anchors (if you're at the top of the chimney, you've gone too far).

The last move to the anchors is definitely the crux (at least as far as fear factor goes), as you have to give up the safe comfort of the chimney and climb out onto the front face, with what feels like a massive drop beneath you. It was actually pretty terrifying, particularly as you're already above your last clipped bolt. I ended up using a bit of a knee bar to lean and peek out from the chimney just enough to be able to reach the anchors and clip, and it wasn't till I was fully secure and ready to lower that I actually left the chimney itself.

Also crap. The low traverse starts well, then needs to use a shit fully detached hold which will come out soon. Top is boring and full of lichen, not sure why Rod put stars here.

Some nice moves down low, then a fat offwidth top. Cool.
