E5 6a E3 5c Take is not a safe word - with Gabriel Jackson Mixed trad 20m, 1 Lukenya Mega Classic

Great climb. Some of the best moves on Egyptian and some of the best moves I've done at Lukenya.

Current grade (French 6c) seems fair for technical difficulty though believe E3 is a better description for seriousness. Protection is fairly decent on good rock and this combination with the moves feels more in line with other E3's in the country.

Highly recommend this route.

What a route. Engaging moves without the rope.

Great addition to the crag and Lukenya - lovely climbing. Would say E3 5c as after scoping it out I found the gear to be pretty bomber and evenly spaced.

Used a boulder pad to cover sharp tree root for first unprotected section after working moves. Great route, not sure if it has been climbed before this.

Had to take at the bolt because the holds were covered in hyrax feces. Disgusting to clean without a brush. Otherwise felt very soft for the grade.

Great route. Maybe closer to VS than S? As at December 2021 was bee-free, but check from the ground before setting off as there are often nests in the crack.
