Ascents as Tick as trad by David Gibbs

The crack wasn't nearly as thin as it looked to be from the ground. Might not protect too badly, actually.

Tope rope clean -- happy with that. Need to think about leading it...

Fun climbing, but with a clear single crux section of about 3-5 moves about 2/3 of the way up.

Consistently tough the whole way, rather than a single "crux" point.

Suprisingly reachy at the top.

Lovely splitter crack.

A good climb with interesting moves. Really needs cleaning.

Fun TR - a bit thin at the top.

Tricky slab to the flake, then burly lay-back climbing from there.

Partner found a variant of the 5.9 variant start -- going up a thin crack/seam about 2m right of it for about 2/3 of the first pitch. I lead pitch 2 (5.6) and half of pitch 3 (5.7).

Was climbing Peggy, but climbed this in sections with re-directs and lowers-in to figure out how it went, and how hard. I think, with a couple re-directs, this could be a fun top-rope off the Peggy anchors. Leading it... hm... after a couple more rehearsals, I think.

I need to lead this.

Had to run up it to set up a rope to rescue Kristine from a lowering jammed rope on TnA.

This gets a top-rope thrown on it a lot, and has gotten polished and far less enjoyable than it was.

Climbed it demonstrating technique - hand and foot jams.

The wet slab at the start made it a bit more interesting.

Soaking wet, it is a bit trickier to climb this.

Was wet at the bottom so TRed it.

To clean the anchor -- so climbed way left & up the arrete for variety.

TR to clean anchor.

TR to setup TR on Mixed Feelings.

Switched to the anchor farther right, then climbed about 3m right Silk Panties -- still felt about the same grade.

Followed P1 clean, lead P2 clean, tried a poor choice for hard variation at end of P3 and fell. Oh well.

Good timing for starting the route, though, as it started to rain just as we were starting to walk off.

In the pouring rain. And still solid climbing.

Wet, with a pack full of gear makes it a bit more work.

Direct start, over the initial roofs. Probably about 5.6.

Being wet made it a bit more interesting.

Went to the other anchor, to clean.

Went up to teach anchor cleaning.
