Ascensiones en Car Crash Quarry

Feels wrong to call this a send. Got all the way to the chains but whimped out clipping them or doing a final move by grabbing the chains. Nice to get back on this after a so long.

Climbed it properly in the dark. A loose block came off near a big pinch after the stem. A jug at the top of graffiti wall also came off along with tonnes of little chips along the way.

Definitely a little harder today in the dark and with so many holds coming off.

Tried it again to see if I could do the moves clean. Still felt sustained for me but only one hang this time

This felt pretty hard as well but not as hard as RO. Sustained power crimping. All the moves went free. Took me a moment to recall some of the beta.

Such a fun final last move.

Lovely line up this wall

Tried to see if I could still do this. Turns out it’s still quite a hard move. Got the slot but felt nearly impossible to bring the feet up. I remembered that there was a left hand push to help but it didn’t seem to help today.

Literally worse that Cheshire Cat

Cool mantle

Very good

Potentially the worst 15 in the country? Dirty choss riddled with wasps and possum piss. The awkward moves and poor bolt placement add to the allure. Over all a good warmup

Cleaning gear. Such a classic 😎

Certainly a cooler way to move through this traverse coming from the dyno. Stuck the traverse easily today too which was nice.

Practicing the move again. Got it again pretty quick. The LH catch of the ELV crimp still makes my finger hurt. The RH dyno still feels rad! Technical!

I always wondered why no one had climbed up here. Well it turns out the rock is still classic CCQ rock even if it looked slightly better than the choss below it. Pulled off another chunk as I was exiting the corner. Ben pulled off another chunk towards the top right near the chains.

As far as the climbing goes, it’s okay. None of the moves felt harder than the moves on ELV. I still took my time as I figured out some moves but nothing too crazy. I would suggest that two grades different to ELV is a little over the top. At most this adds half a grade maybe one full grade to ELV.

Maybe I’ll run laps on this now as 30 laps of ELV is starting to sound like I have obsessive compulsive disorder 🤪

Setting up a TR for ELV Right

I love the face moves getting up to the mantle. Nearly got it with some generous beta. But I couldn't make my left hand stick. Worked it a bit without much improvement...

So close, and yet... Took a pretty decent fall for my troubles. Glad it's a nice safe one, because the crux move is pretty scary. Next time. Good climb, would get 2 stars if it wasn't so short

I'd forgotten I'd already sent this... That's what the crag 's for I guess!

Got it pretty good after a bit of mucking around. Great climb. Send it next time

Did okay after working out the start (&having already climbed the rest). Not sure the start adds anything. But still a great climb just for the original section. It'll go!

Not horrible, not great either
