Ascents in Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) as Onsight

Now there is a anchor with two bolts

After the last bolt is a small runout where you have to move right. I cleaned the way to the anchor a little bit.

Not sure if I lead this correctly as it was intended, felt hard for the grade going left at 3rd bolt.

Nice to have a more powerful route at Beetle's Nest. Still one of the softer 6a routes in the city. Here's a little video of it https://www.instagram.com/p/CdSg0SEjXP6/

Leading this is too awkward as it shares bolts with Benissima . Not worth it. But this line has potential to be done with trad gear.

Super fun. Solid crimps with balancey footwork.

The start is the most physically demanding part on the route. The rest has plenty of good rests. A little chossy from the lack of traffic even though this route has been up for a decade.

It's a baby grade but technically my first Onsight!

Route was just fine but sort of a pain to clean on top down. Better to just climb it again top rope and take draws off. Tons of rope drag too and an annoying top rope. Cool cave near the top of the route though.

Route definitely feels shorter than 25 meters. Definitely feels like like 15-18m. Regardless, the climb was good.

Great climb. The dihedral climbing is a very different style that I recommend every local climber to try.

Really spicy crux move but you basically get infinite rest before you get on it.

Be careful with the first bolt. It won't offer much protection. Should use a branch to stick clip second bolt.
