Interesting climb out of the box thinking. Kneebar, my first elbow bar (is there another name for that *update: apparently called a chicken wing in trad 😃), shelf pinches. I actually enjoyed this eventhough I thought I was going to fall many times.

The previous attempt I was iceskating and flailing all over this route and I thought it was not possible for me. This time it flowed, I had the crux down and I made it to the top no problem. What a journey! Unfortunately ran out of time to go for the send because I waited too long and we had to go. I will have to come back for it.

|||||||
19 ~21 | ★★★ All Along the Watchtower | 10 | |||||
The route has a traddy start and because I cannot handjam yet I climbed it interestingly, then it flows nicely for a short while and then the crux happens at a place where if you don’t make it, you could hit the ledge followed by a hard move at the end. I found this harder than the two 20s so would not approach it thinking you’re climbing a 19. The route put me in a bad mental space as it has all the factors that I struggle with mentally: exposure, run-outs, trad vibes, cruxes above ledges and sandbaggery. I did not want to lead my project after this 😆

Retro flash, tried onsight last year and hung at mantle. This year it ended up being much more of a fight than expected, battled huge pump, but hung in there to get the send. Climbed with Josh and Elbi.
