21 Adrift

A daunting lead up a beautiful grey slabby wall on perfect rock. Technically only grade 18 or 19 but there is no protection on the crux 8m run-out. This pitch climbs the best and boldest section of the old route Drifting (21). Start at the double ring belay at the top of the first pitch of Spillway. Up the juggy wall to skirt the far R side of the recessed ledge (the major flake/crack line above is Gigi's Climb). Drift R-wards and climb the easy shallow recessed flake. When it runs out, move up L-wards for a couple of metres to a short (200mm), but deep, finger-width crack. Load up with bomber pro and launch off up the superb wall above. You will eventually reach the Shining Path bolt on the arete. Continue as for the the Shining Path (up the slab, traverse R along the foot-traverse [Sluice] and up the short vertical crack to the belay rings below Shining Path's last pitch). Either continue as for the Shining Path (grade 19) or three rappels down (30m, 30m and 10m).
