Ascents in El Racó del Boticari

First a ladder, then one awkward move into the diedro, then a walk to the top. And the rope scratches a lot over rock and rope when coming down.

Doing this on lead today. It went quite okay and I figured out the upper bit from second draw onwards - with rests though.

The move to get off the ground seems still way out of reach. Tried it as shoulder move today, but still no chance. Aided again.

Tried it a second time on toprope. Although knowing the sequence now, I couldn't execute everything without sitting on the rope.

Already quite hard from the start. But the sequence across the bulge really kills me. Eventually found a beta that might work. But still so hard. Not a 6b+ in my book. Even hard for 6c I'd say:

Finally got this one done. Good, I looked up the sequence at the end before the climb!

Very hard start. Couldn't get past the monodedo to reach the left-hand crimp. Aided it and got through the next couple of moves. Struggled again with the move to the ledge.

After the unsuccessful shots at the two 6a+'s, this was a welcome change. Pleasant route on good and big holds. Very rewarding and good last climb of the day.

Had another go. I'm not really enjoying myself on this one. I feel awkward and in the wrong position all the time while climbing it. Got till the mono but didn't have the juice to clip the chains.

Beta for myself for next time: When going left towards the mono, stay as low as possible. With left hand into the mono as undercling - try to get a comfortable stance. Clip chains from there.

The overhang is nice. The rest is average.

Seems like a disproportionally hard start for a 6a+. Couldn't do the moves and had to use quickdraws. Thereafter significantly easier. Not a 6a+ for me.

Figuring out the sequence. Very hard but now I see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Tight forearms at the end. Should have sent this one.
