Ascents of Direct as Retreat

Rained off at the 4th clip. I’m beginning to think some sky deity doesn’t want me to lead rope solo this route. In other news, the bottom threaded anchor or direct takes an M10 threaded bolt (a dismantled Hilti HSA works real pretty and is rated for shear strength). There is some real break yourself potential on this route if you were to slip near the next bolt when LRSing.

Started questing up lead rope solo then realised it was in the direct sun and I was getting an impressive bit of sunburn. Binned it in favour of avoiding skin cancer.
