Fuarrrrrk fell agonisingly close on the flash burn. Literally fell with the rope in my hand attempting to clip the chains. Great beta and encouragement from Jack helped it go down relatively easily second shot.

One day of faff and then back for the send - without resorting to the massive cave rest, using a low kneebar at the 3rd draw instead, certainly added a challenge. Very happy with the progress on this route, after such a decent break too.
