Needs clarification for top moves, if using arête with right hand only I would say it's spot on 20. Direct or left hand finish I would put at 23, incredibly desperate! Thus, I worked on the left variant for 30 min with no success. Right hand on arête no problems.

Extremely difficult following the line after the last bolt. I abandoned it and went up the arete.
Wendy seconded and sort of laybacked with one hand on the arete, maybe that's the move...

Repeat, originally attempt was a flash. Fun climbing, but difficult (and grossly contrived) to avoid placing your right hand and right foot on the arete at the top, especially since doing so still positions your body directly over the bolted climbing line. I'd call it an easy 20 and say that using the arete is in, provided you don't retreat to it. An okay climb, all in all.

I dunno. That last move? Use the arete and it's way under the grade. Stay to the line and it's a total sandbag. Is the 20 just an average of the two?

Second linked 1st and 2nd pitch, lead the top (crux) pitch. Made it through the crux no worries, but with temperatures around zero I couldn't feel my fingers to hold onto the one crimp on this climb. Pleasant climbing on the 1st and 2nd pitch, and a funky finale for the grade on the 3rd pitch. Some choss towards the top spoils the experience somewhat.

The last pitch is like Shakespeare's poetry on rock. The moves, the rush, the exposure. Mr Big pitch 3 tells us how Mr Little we all are.
Took two ropes. Abseiled off from the top to the top of pitch one. Please take helmets. A rock followed the rope down when we pulled it through. |

One day ill get a clean ascent on a multi! Endurance issues on P3 but this was by far my favorite. Powerful moves on jugs through the roof then sustained but still juggy until a rest in the cave. Well bolted through the crux. Earlier pitches are runout, however, no reason to take a fall.
Suggest perhaps doing a 50m rapel to the top of P1. We had some issues hitting the ledge with the overhang above it. |
