Grade kinda varies from 6C-7A depending on what holds you use. Its 7A if you only use pockets low down, but if you use high slopers its 6C.

So I came back for this and couldn’t even get off the ground this time 🤣🙈 shows you what a little bit less strength does. Back to the drawing board (more like finger board and a month of pull-ups 😆)

After months I came back for this, put the draws up and climbed first go all the way to the top where I fell off the crux. The nicest I’ve ever climbed the route. Spent half an hour on the crux until my hands and body hurt and concluded that I’d need to walk away from it 😭 I was so close, but ultimately the crux is too hard for me 😥

Alta Lourette
How is this a 17, what am I missing? I went left where there were holds which felt off-route. Wanted to climb the 18 next to it afterwards, but after this decided not to. Felt like I was coming off the whole time 👎

Not a 4 star as the book suggests IMO. One hard crux

 
22 Flint Soft Sport 9 Don't Bother
Alta Lourette
Schlep to clean. Wish it were a straight line with its own chains. Pumpy, hard and doesn’t flow well. Gave up where it meets Flint Hard before the hole, nothing to hold on there and doesn’t make sense.
