Ascensioni di A Quiet Chat

TR. Pretty much cruised it today. I love the way I do the bottom it feels so cool with the high R foot and big reach o with the R hand. Also love the crux with the dependency and the poor L foot and small flat top hind for the R hand to grab the high, left hand sloppier gaston with crimp on it 😀

Got pumped looking for where to go. Moves were not to bad once I worked it out.

TR. Several times over the weekend, mostly flawlessly but came off of the tiny RH side pull I use at the start.

I doubted I’d get this clean today, but it ended up feeling almost easy.

A nice line, smooth sailing here.

Felt good, used Mark’s beta to good effect

An enjoyable straight forward line.

TR. A set of one, set of two, set of three. Wet at the top so needed different beta.

Only once. Both of my crux holds were wet, the little LH triangular pocket and the RH three finger flat top jug.

About 6 laps. Hadn’t climbed for a week and felt fat so thought I’d struggle but cruised it generally. Also did Illequipt and climbed the arete for something to do.

In my MOST humble fucking opinion this is a far better route than Illequipt.

TR a number of times. Some back to back. Felt good.

Couldn't figure out the crux first shot.

Nice move, got it 2nd shot.

Several times on TR. Flawlessly.

TR. Twice. Second guessing my footwork on the crux.

Just twice. Nice to climb on Christmas eve with Bill and Stefan... Almost forgot the beta!

Just three times today, two back to back. Felt good.

A set of 2 and a set of 3,TR, all clean. Struggled a tad with the crux move on the first ascent...

About 10 times. Flawlessly...

7 times. A set of 1,a set of 2 a set of 3 and a final single.

On TR clean twice. Have it wired.

A set of one, set of two, set of three.

Six times, a set of one, a set of two a set of three. I have this wired now.

A set of 2, then a set of 5. Great day for it.Fuck I love some of the moves in this climb the way I do it.

Three times today I think. Came off on the second go, the wet rock made it a grade harder, both at the bottom on the very small footers and up the top on and just after what I call the book holds. The move to the 'high left hand gaston sloper with a crimp on it' is always a delight.

Four or five times on TR. Love the sequence on this, especially the "high left sloper with a crimp gaston". Some really cool moves, lovely little incut crimpy holds and side pulls to bounce to. I'm giving it three stars. I also feel it's a pretty stout 19,and it'd be a very risky lead... Anyone know who did the FA and when?
