Ascents in Spartan Wall as Red point

7 times in the route, 3rd RP try

2nd go this year. 3rd go overall I think? Messed up the crux on first attempt today putting the draws in and got a bit spooked but went fairly easily second go today.

7b Rockfax guidebook which probably feels more accurate?

repeat lead

2nd shot. Thin and techie, great!

Gear up for Sam's send.

Repeat. But today, it was soap. Never seen these connies on Spartan Wall.

Repeat. Probably my favourite 6c on the island.

A way harder than a 6c+, hard to onsight!

boulder with rope! very nice moves (3go)

short section on small crimps

First shot today was terrible. Didn't think it was going to happen, second and third obviously got progressively better.

Fell off first shot clipping the anchors. Just had to use my feet a bit more effectively...

Draw retreival mission after yesterdays rain. Some say that I may have grabbed the chain and that as such this was not a valid ascent. My sporting hero Lance Armstrong once said "I'll say to the people who don't believe, the cynics and the sceptics: I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles."u

Only 6c+ in the guide, I had previously fallen off this. Nearly did again today. Nails slabbing! Ergh!

Amazing exposure!

Awesome adventurous route up an unlikely line

In sneakers.

Insanely good rock. With Lara.
