Long day!
We went in 2 parties of 2, and it took us longer than expected.
There's a well marked path, but we still managed to get lost on the walk in.
Rapped on a fixed 70m line, and had to do another 2 abseiles because the second rope wouldn't reach the ground...
First pitch felt pumpy, and really fun!
Second pitch was the easiest
Third pitch can be tricky!! But Bruno found a better beta that made it way easier then what I did...
To exit we swang across to the main wall and climbed the top 3 pitches of Welsh Dragon. First bolt on the 19 pitch is dangerously run out! Careful! |

I couldn't stick the gaston move from the ground, although I can do it in isolation consistently.
I heard there was a "tall people beta" for the crux, so I gave it a shot and it felt so much easier! And I'm not that tall (1.79m).
Instead of doing the gaston, you palm right, bring the left foot in the slot, and reach the jug.
The description doesn't say that right hand palm is off, and on the YouTube videos I've watched, everybody uses it for the foot while resting on the jugs.
I still feel like that gaston move is the "soul" of the climb, and I want to come back to it and do it properly. If this is true, then maybe someone should specify it on the description...? The way I did, it felt closer to a 24 then a 26. |

Great day out trying hard from the first few moves already.
1st pitch is great. I was so close to the top, but the rope got caught under a flake below, which made it impossible to clip. To finish the climb, it felt like I was pulling 30kg on the rope.
