Repeat. Climbed with Anna, her first time trading on TM. Goodbye climb with her, fun to share this experience. Realised how gripped I was when I flashed this, was very inexperienced at trad back then. Trad

Lead all pitches. Cool day out with Simon giving me beta on pro placements. Josh cheering me on from below. First 17 on trad. Ultra classic route. Nice to flash this, felt fairly locked in. First trad lead that felt like proper climbing.

1st pitch=scary; 2nd/3rd pitches are classic, bolts at top for belaying and rapping make it luxurious.

You can abseil from here, there is a variation which adds a beautiful 19 (South African). It's possible to do it, scramble down the back and abseil from the anchors after the 17.
