Rope drag can be lessened by having the second unclip the first runner after the leader is on a bit.

I did the LH variant mostly because it seemed to have the most chalk on it. Was pretty stiff for 14.

It's ironic that we were going to do the Lady Dihedral finish but Rob preferred the 13 to the 15. This was a rueful decision. When I got to the dreaded chimney traverse, I was only able to get a good runner in at the start; didn't have the right size to protect any further along. As I was looking at a big swing smashing into the corner, I climbed very carefully finally pulling up at the end rather relieved. Rob balked at this completely. I got him to take his pack off as we could get it on the abseil. However this didn't quite do it so I said put the runner back into the corner and clip one of the ropes. So now he was protected from both sides. He vows to go back and do it properly some day. On the abseil we collected everything and our day was done. | 78m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
A great classic, something for everyone. First pitch is a glorified hike. Second, a wildly exposed crack and face climb for the agoraphobiacs, followed by the 3rd pitch which took me back to my caving days.

Thought this pitch was very easy. Perhaps I should have used the LH line instead of going straight up . | 95m, 3 | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Was happy to have that #4 cam for the last pitch. A grand day out. Did this back in the 90s and as with most climbs from that era, I could recall nothing.

Ali's was the perfect family outing on this hot summers day as it is mostly in shade. We went through Ali Baba's Cave for little adventure and then back to Ali's to The Bluffs. I belayed the kids up the first section to the chain and again on the final scramble from The Bluffs, it was wet in parts.
15m-20m rope should be enough.
Easy walk down Central Gully in the hot summers sun.
