17 Ozone Action Mixed trad 20m, 3 Classic
Nice warmup as a sport route.

If led only on the bolts (including clipping one bolt from the offshoot left which can be reached very easily) its a bold but not unsafe sport climb. The nerviest bit was actually just getting to the first without stick clipping it.

Perhaps the description should be updated, as it is definitely reasonable but not mandatory to place any gear.

19 Colosseum Corner Trad 78m Very Good
Thought I'd been up before, until i realised i remembered nothing of the top pitches.

Honestly the first pitch is mega, but the top pitches are really dirty and quite vegetated. Quite the adventure and still worth doing to the top.

Seconded the first pitch, which id led before. Led the second 19. Ran out of gear, so didn't link the final pitch. Also didn't like the carrots in that anchor, so belayed from the rings out right. All and all a bit of an epic, but that's why we're here.

19 I'd Rather Be Sailing Mixed trad 28m, 6 Classic
A really nice lead, great rock and moves, but i'll never understand the bolting or grade.

The only supplementary gear that would actually be useful consists of two #4 cams. But either way theres a couple of spots where a fall would drop you on a small ledge before falling onto a bolt a meter below. With the addition of two or three bolts it would be well protected sport. As is its just runout sport, but not a real mixed route.

As for the grade, theres no way the boulder goes at 19, its about 22. If you aid past then its probably only 17/18 from there. So how do you grade it? "17R Sport Batman start" might be fair, but it seems ridiculous.

Finally got back to do the final pitch clean. Still a little strenous to be honest. But it went down without too much fuss. The first two pitches remain some of the best introductory jam climbing in the mountains, with good jams surrounded by good feet and some jugs. A great place to learn, and the top pitch is a great test at the grade.
