Ascents in Krack Rock

Good stemming with decent enough gear to keep you off the ledge.

Soft.

When the cracks lean to one side = balancey

Great fun. Easy to protect. Nice to be back on some rock again

Felt easier than a 5.10a, maybe a 5.9?

best route at Krack Rock!

Did the 10a mid-pitch variation (finger crack) and then went left (instead of right as shown in the topo) to Onsight Inc. anchor.

Evening warm-down mileage after 10 pitches on the Apron

Isn't this a 5.9? It's a four star 5.9 in the new guidebook.

Interesting off-axis movement.

Awkward start then nice flowing hand jams

A bit varied in width, but ok.

Teaching a friend to place gear. Stiffer than was expecting

Good climbing but felt much easier than the 5.10a listed in the guidebooks. Might be more to the grade if you stick to the crack and don't use any of the other features to the side.

5.9

5.9 in the guidebook

Marker for the crack - guidebook 5.7 but Redpoint after a few takes, technical start, not sure it was the right climb

Split the climb into 3 pitches to train multi-pitch switch-overs. Team of 3 people.
