Ascents in Elsie's Peak as Tick

Had followed Josh on this a few years ago when I was starting out with trad. P1 is exciting (bring micro cams) and P2 I swerved around the crack overhang because it was totally wet. Theme of the day.

Cool route, the second pitch was wet at the traverse and in the crack so aided through. Would like to go back, gets you into a pretty cool position for an 18.

Graded 19 but felt more like 21. Was also wet and schaulky but found the climbing hard. Long way off leading this. Seconded Josh. Lead P2 easy exit pitch.

What a jam fest. Took quite a while to figure out the beta. At first I was convinced exiting the roof would require a feet first approach. Spent too much time on that idea and finally worked out beta that involves some good old straight forward pulling hard on hand jams.
