One hung 2x’s, very close to the send but stymied by the wet undercling. Really excellent, flowy moves in the one. My favourite at the Cave so far!

Good connies and slight beta refinements were the winning combination for the send. A bit of an anti-style for me, requiring some serious power endurance. Feeling ready for some of the more stout Cave objectives now!

Quite a nice linkup actually, and harder than Gorilla alone given that it also passes the crux of Rubble. Possibly 28 but easier than She Devil in its current state, so who knows? Either way, good training for Trog!

Got it down to one hang, and came pretty bloody close to latching the jug after the last hard move. Unfortunately, spoogy conditions meant I was overgripping, so pumped out too easily. Next time!

Still can't clip anchor due to seepage, but have all the moves to the last bolt down now! up to last bolt at least, no move is hard in isolation now I know them. Nice heel-toe cam below sidepull (from lefthand pinch going triangular righthand pinch) near last bolt. Nice kneebar on the undercling ball between 3rd and 4th. Fun crossover sequence around 2nd bolt and BIG fun crossover move from 4th to 5th bolt (I prefer this, Daniel's way to bumping out), too ♡ I have slightly different beta from Daniel going for meat wrap hold (skip the right crimp, sloper on left hand, then to meat wrap). I used nice tabling heelhook on meat wrap hold from 3rd to 4th also

Did most of the moves first time without having too much trouble. However the one right heel hook which I couldn't avoid was no good on my knee so I bailed until this heals. Probably still a while away in terms of endurance, would be a good project when uninjured
