Ascents of Mental As Anything

Great route repeat, fun to get on it again. First go to warm up the fingers

First redders. Quality route

Yikes. This is nails.

Fun send today, first go putting up the draws

Got back on to relearn my beta, reckon next session it will go.

First 25 in a single session Thought I was going to drop the top but managed to push through!

A short classic for the grade. Must do!

Tried as last climb of the day, was really fun! Got bit pumped out in a few places

Good moves with sustained pulling. Glad to get in one session although finger tips aren't too happy

Georgie kindly put the draws on for me, no warm up climb today, felt good the whole way just needed the sleep.

Put draws on bolt to bolt, felt good

Fell off after the crux (had last draw clipped)

Tried to change beta near the top and pumped myself out in the crux

Georgie sent 3rd go, after Glen told us how to do the start using a right hand hold far right (we had been going straight)

Too gased, couldn't hold the crux, cleaned the draws off after going to the top 5 times, quite disappointed.

Put draws on refreshing moves from previous day

All moves done with 1 fall in the crux, felt close

To the top 3 times, still felt hard but that it would go, worked out I'm tall enough to go left hand first in the crux this attempt which felt better, thought this change would get me the send the next day...

Worked out all the moves, G tried on top rope as it started raining and we wanted a bail option

25 as it shold be. 4 goes.

Almost harder the the 26s 😅

Managed it with one hang but couldn't quite put it together, I'll be back!

The holds are quite polished but i believe the quality is still preserved. The tricky part for me was finding the right feet through the crux and clipping one move past it. Stoked to climb with Glen when i sent it, local legend for sure.

More sandbags from MB. Too tired after doris, but much more doable.

too frigen hot!!

world class route, unreal. 2 shots today, just missed that last hold of the crux, tomorrow for sure...1st shot today...unreal

great sustained climbing
