Ascents of Beginners' Steps

Clean Repeat, seconding Monty. Still great climbing in a great position, shame it's so short.

First shot today as a warmup, but I Top Rope Solo'd this clean 4 months ago, so can't claim the flash

Awesome face climbing start on great rock, followed by a steep, exposed arete that is fairly easy but for a single sequence. With numb hands this felt tough!

Proper alpine conditions today. Quite torturous.

2 Laps Clean on TRS. P2 is the business: a rad start and arete crux (felt kinda hard to me... 23ish?), but features a deathy start on the face left of the arete (the crux is essentially unprotected). Possibly you're meant to climb the easier arete more direct at the start, but it was coated with lichen and looked disgusting.
