I finished this but fucked up the ascent as I had to traverse away from a hornets nest, which then created a massive rope drag for me at the top! I was luckier than my friend however who got stung on the head on his way up and took a massive whipper! It was an exciting day

7b+ | ★★★ Shampoo Effect (1) | 17m, 8 | ★ Good | ||||
I'm not sure if i like or dislike this line. Two hard moves affter a few metres and then super hard roof. Requiers a lot of body tension and is followed by a pull-up move at the edge of the roof. Also quite scary, although perfectly safe.

6b | ★★ The Feeling of Freedom - with Denis, Jade | 19m, 10 | ★ Good | ||||
The route start at the tufa and gets progressively harder. I'd say it's a pretty good route.
