Ascents in The Sentinel

Such an absorbing climb. A time machine climb that feels much longer than its meters. New anchors on top to lower off.

Super keen to get back on this one!!

Bloody tough. Kept coming off trying to pull onto the climb so will give it the red point. Said I'd give it one last attempt as we watched dark clouds and thunder approach and managed to stick it. Commited then and had to compose myself as I kept fighting to the top while it began to slowly rain, then pelt down just near the top. Full lightning strikes around as I summited so I turfed all my gear straight down the rope. Used Dean as a body anchor on the other side to rapidly clean the route as the sky opened up hail the size of cool mints. Can't get much more epic than that!

very nice once you work out some protection for the start

Thin crimpy slab seam that eats small nuts.

Such a sick route! A bit longer and it would be worth 3 stars.

Good gear, just a tough start. Make sure you have a plan on how to get back down!

Awesome route, tricky but far from impossible. Good gear placements all the way up.

tiny crystal pulling.

if it was longer i'd give it a classic rating. magnificent line that begs to be climbed. the crack offers awesome protection but the holds are never quite positive which doesn't matter 'cause the feet are so good. start wasn't as tough as i thought it would be but is definitely the crux.

big crank to get off the ground, great small gear. great photo opportunity!
