Ascensiones en Fang Buttress

had a quick play at the end of the day. Tres bouldery!

The 4m of actual climbing is very good. just a pity it isn't more sustained. top crux is a doozy, some whack ass heel beta saved the day. soft.

Really nice movement.

bring on the NYE pump! rope was on so i thought i may as well... got to the 2nd undercling (under the bulge) clean, but def. couldnt get the next move

So good and so close to camp

I really liked this. One of the bet 26's at the mount.

Just the best line around

My last tick for 2006, not too bad a year after all

Stellar varied climbing - it's got everything

Sweet route

last minute choice. not that hard, just never got back on it

This climb is one of the BEST I've climbed. The crux is absolutely steller!! Once figured out it's easier than down lower!!

Sustained with awesome moves. Nice work by Aaron ticking this one

Thanks to Steve Kelly & the SA crew for the beta and gear, super stoked.

Awesome varied moves, bolts and close to the car - is there anything not to like about this?

Not very sport like. Got all the moves first lap just didn't get back on it. Take some gear to supplement.

with Pommy

Two shots over two days, second shot feeling strong and tight with new beta and my foot slipped off the top of the crux

Got off my ass and wandered over to have a go with Emma and James. This route is primo!!!! i dont think its a soft touch , pretty bouldery through the guts then technical top section! Rad. thanks for Beta and Belay James.

So awesome! Move to slopper at the time had some trouble with so came down!

Still that slopper move is getting to me... Will have to find a way next time I'm on it

Gave it a shot with draws on, commitment issues and angry elbows... Maybe another time!

Fell at first crux

Windyyy, nearly got blown off at top crux, had to chalk but and balance on smears haha

Got through both cruxes at the bottom but still had not figured out how to do the upper crux! Found a way it will go next time

brilliant climbing

Feels ridiculously hard, until you do the beta.. then it's actually not so bad. Two or three moves at least would be substantially harder for people with shorter arms.

Arrgghh, shouldn't leave a year between shots.

Great route, cleaned up on the second shot!

2.5 shots (my 2nd shot was a stupid fall down low). On my final shot I went to a crucial mid-crux hold I'd been using for an intermediate (but hadn't ticked) and instead went for the wrong spot... punting it mid-crux. I really enjoyed this. Powerful and pumpy with a lot of moves on the steepness, then engaging ticky-tac face moves at the crux, and a slopey, runout finale. Classic Arapilean hard(er) face climbing.

The route I've been looking for... almost sent before I left, but my depleted skin and body couldn't push through the entire high crux. 1 sit, sweet as sugar. If you're redpointing and know the route, skip the last clip and run it out to the anchors. FYI, red cam in the pocket down low, but it would be better fitted with a gold link cam to get through the gap.

Hopeless - got to the bulge just after the 2nd FH.
