Ascents of The Minidala

Made better progress using the heel hook instead of the toe smear. Had a goon burn, slapping close to the top of the arete. A few more sessions.

Ive wanted to climb this since I first saw it a few years back, huge crew send today with 5 of us getting the ticks.

Moments of bliss.

Really solid to the top out. Even that feels like it’s solidly within grasp. Just need to execute. Not sure about the grade?

Progress! Can consistently and without too much trouble get out left, Bump right hand up, get body across and toe out left, Bump left up, Bump right up again now which feels quite good. Then I feel in a solid stance at eye level with the finish holds. Slapped and Controlled the left sloper but need to quickly get the right up too to be able to climb through. Will be desperate and scary at the height.

Worked the moves. Got the left hand across and left foot across, fall whilst trying to bump up left.

Beautiful aesthetic climbing. Top out appears to be the crux. High fall but very clean fall.
