Feels much more placid on the blunt end in approachies. Definately recommend the ~#1 cam slot out left rather than the nut behind marginal flake at the steepness.
Ramble first pitch including a glue-in ring or two [?off route onto SPB - no carrots spotted] to double bolt belay, 2nd pitch adds the stars with some juggy pumpy climbing, the harder climbing ring bolt protected. Double carrot belay after the highline threads*3.
Not sure if its a sandbag or just got a bit heady doing the crux in light rain.
Excellent climb, pro is tough to find initially, but there are plenty of spots. Ring bolts are in just the right positions. Crux is enjoyable, view is excellent. Goodfeet the whole way, a worthwhile climb in the area.
Despite there being carrots on the line I went with a trad only ascent as I was wearing approach shoes. Not too bad if done like that, and good route finding reveals all the holds needed to keep it at the grade ....
Another UTSOAC night time adventure. Climbing top belay in the pitch black of night with your head torch is a decent challenge. Mot of the climb was a walk in the park but the crux offered a heart pumping challenge as I worked my through trying to find the much needed holds and footers in the dark. A few good knee bars through the crux along with some reachy holds. Sensational!
