Ascents of Reina del Sur

one of the best routes in Chonta, just awesome! Crispy boulder at the start, then some nice cruising through tufas, unconfortable no-hand-rest, the last quite complex boulder and a technical slab to get to the chains. 4th try in total, almost on the 2nd go...now my Chonta-carrera starts hahaha

finisima. bien diferente a sus hermanas.

7 shots in total. Fun first session with Esau where I could do all the moves. Did 3 goes in that session, where I managed to two-hang the route. Felt far at the time. Fortunately, I videoed someone with actual good beta on the climb, which, when I went with Chrissy yesterday, I put to good use after my first attempt of the day, and on my second and third go, I one hung the route. Today, I almost sent on my first try of the day had I not tried to unnecessarily readjust. Then, after a tip from Chrissy regarding how to use a pocket, and Kashmir regarding a shoulder rest, I sent and it was glorious. Powerful, relentless, yet techy and precise. I love it, and it's I think my 60th 5.12 of this year, and I have completed my 13a pyramid! Bring on 2024!!
