Start is so sandbagged. Maybe if you are really tall is better but I found a way to get there. Was a bit of a boulder problem really, kind of fun to figure it out but definitely not 18. After the first/second bolt it’s an easy 17

Sandbag graded, was a 19 maybe before all the holds broke…
First pitch move onto the slab wall is really hard but at least protected. Move of the slab to the the corner was really tough - couldn’t figure it out going second…I would have taken so many falls there, with the last clipped draw a long way down the slab below…
Second pitch really hard thin face climbing with holds breaking as you grab/step on them. At least it’s easy to belay as the belay point is just below. |

Sandbag. Between the 2nd and 3rd bolt and the move to get over the 3rd bolt are at least 22.
It was a cool sequence to work out, felt like unlocking a secret combination.

Super fun once I worked out the (only?) way to do it. For me it involved single finger pocket and a dyno to sloper mantle (although I think it can be reached statically). Quite hard?
|
