21 The Tempest Trad 50m
Sketchy start over flakey ground with limited pro. Some of the cracks are dirty and require removal of soil to get gear in. Didn't particularly fancy the look of the first arete and had a look at the main higher arete, the first bolt looked rusty so be very cautious of these old bolts.. ended up climbing Cirrus Minor which is very dirty, particularly the crux slab which I mostly avoided going off route to the left.. The climbing upto/past the bolts looks quite tricky but good climbing, wouldn't trust those old bolts though.
