16 Deep Space - Sickle Trad 90m Classic
33 degrees in shade. Marta led P1. Me P2&3. P2 serious but not technical. Repositioned belay for P3 to below Icy Universe. Guide book wrong. Look for thin diagonal down and right from the base of the Sickle hand crack.

14 Mantle Trad 90m Very Good
Poor gear on first pitch. 1st belay unnerving off a single stacked block. 2nd pitch extended to 60m and was fantastic. Light on for gear off the first belay ledge. Bolt unnecessary by modern standards.

Scared myself silly, and rested at third bolt. Rock has suffered a little post fires and is a little friable, making the smears a little insecure. But very doable and enjoyable climbing nonetheless.
