Ascents in Pha Tam Kam as Hang dog

First few moves are the killer! Worked it all out on the first shot. Past the start it's all good. (I do like a low crux haha)

Sun came over around 1.10pm. Waited a bit and tried again. Could not do the move off the ground. The light changing hid whatever footer I used first time. Clean to top after that though. Note to self, chalk up footers used first try so you can see them in the arvo!

(2) tricky boulder balance start

Really good. Alas, had to climb in the sun. But, it did mean I could see the start holds which was my issue last time. Got the start 3 times just as the sun hit then had to clean it. Unfortunately looking into the sun means you can't see anything! But hopefully now I can do the start, the rest will go.

When you're in a group of 3, warm up at 8am and then your second climb is at midday... you know it's not going to go well. Super fingery start. Not sure if I liked it as apart the the approaching sun, it was super crimpy on cold fingers. Maybe another day?

Wow one to come back for! Very solid at the grade... in quite a few places!!

Awesome

Hard crimpy start with a pretty technical sequence. Great sustained top section

hard start and the crux not easy for onsight

Hard to onsight crux, pretty cool pulling on fossilised shells

Found boulder hard, ended up dogging to save skin/energy. Top was very cool.

Really fun climb blew off the sharp side pull lost it at the slippery feet then flew up the rest need to work the crux then go for the send

Crimpy and sustained, real fun for this kind of people , you will need your iron fingertips

first try. amazing route

second try next day for warm up...

another fall at the crux

Fucking mega line. Tried to face climb the crux like a fucking punter and made it 8a for myself 😅 One of my fave climbs here. Good holds and rest all the way with an exciting slightly traversy finish.

Incredible climb! So pumpy and polished at the top

Amazing route! Got to go back and lead it.

Too sweaty

Last Climb left. Gotta try these things

Last day explore

Not sure I understood the crux very well..

A dog and a few tr laps build a bit of endurance

Huge jugs on the right of the crux.. plenty of chalk on all of them.. but you can't use them.. otherwise it's 7a or less.. hiw did people like this climb, I don't know.. I wonder how many have actually done the 7b crux..

There really needs to be an option for all clean but fell at anchor. I’m mean... twice in a row.... 40m... I’m head butting the draw... isn’t that just a victory whip?? Twice... On a good note, took 2 massive whippers (3rd of Climb??) and my back was fine. Mind you, softest catch ever...

First shot bolt to bolt to warm up properly this time.. and not do a Dan Worked out a better anchor clipping sequence.
