Ascents in The Keep

Awesome, Chamonix style climbing. Techy traverse followed by great gear and finger jams in the corner. Cam placements: Red #1 and yellow #2 in the corner, then green #0.75 to protect the mantle onto the ledge. Broke a hold on the onsight attempt and came off, sadly. #2ndGo

Awesome route. Very tricky technical moves on the initial traverse (where I came off trying to do some tricky foot work), then some exposed moves on the arete up higher.

Really good. Sustained.

Happy to get this clean. Tenuous at the bottom.

Made it to the top with a lot of dogging. Super sustained all the way but a couple of definite cruxes

So good! Bloody hard but did the bottom better than last time. Might go with a lot of projecting

Really tough. Cool moves

Cool climb with interesting moves. Not sure what holds are meant to be off limits. Seems a little easier than Reincarnation and Arrested Development

Came very close to getting it clean on the last attempt, just slipped off doing a bump. Need to get on lead next!

Sustained. Can almost get to the big move at half way clean. But the top is hard

A bit wet today

Got it clean on top rope. Got to love how quickly castle rock dries

Stoked to send this. First 25, though it is likely a bit soft. I used the ledge at the top to rest, not sure if that's considered legit.

Went from the base of the crag and continued up past the ledge clipping the extra bolt to top out proper. Roughly 30m and feels like a 22 doing it this way.

Cool movement, sustained but a few cruxes. Did all the moves

Good

Solid 25, made it to the dyno… Need to find those no hand rests

Fell on the crux but some how reattached and started again. Made it clean but very hard work for me
