Above the lower crux I wished I still had a red and yellow C4. All gear I could find was a cam behind a flake and a tricam in a very parallel crack. So I downclimbed, fetched some gear placed lower on the climb, and got it onsite.

What an epic route! At the start of P3 I stepped on to the face right of the chimney and got sucked into a scary gearless traverse around the corner. The last bit looked scary AF so I built a stance under the roof so my belayer cam watch me.

First pitch was just really nice face climbing with well spaced pro, just perfect. I don't know why but I thought P2 was going to be a ramble for the top and then it started out with a huge move and kept going. An absolute super route!

The plan was to just try the route today and maybe figure out where to put gear for the redpoint, but I got up to the start of the first crux with not too much effort and decided to keep trying. I had to downclimb a bit to retrieve a cam I knew I needed later and managed to keep going to the real crux and pull trough. Excellent route with excellent gear!

Tried this one two times before this season and got it clean today. I only took one red cam to not get too used to having two and regretted it the whole way. After the crux I jammed a gold C4 in and it got stuck at a crap angle. I had to place a tricam because I was getting pretty led out and managed to send. That means I got most of the hard bits on passive gear, only the green cam at the crux-crux! (tricams are passive right?)

We tried to reach the summit by going up the Caves route and got as far as the last pitch before reaching the summit ridge. My big toe was starting to bug me and we were having some trouble finding the last scramble to the top. We went down the Caves route and almost stepped on a snake on the trail.
