Very fun climb on big flakes

Gorgeous climbing, stunning view from the arete the whole way, cool moves and a bit of a traverse at the top

Kind of feel like this is approaching a 20. Very awesome movement, with no real rest. Feels a touch easier than MFDS, but harder than 19 to be sure. And the potential whip off the end makes for quite a committing move after building the pump.

Surprisingly hard start. Then I was blinded by the sunshine I couldn't see where to go at all. Probably one to get on early before the sun is ridiculously in your eyes.

So hot today, only did this hike out but gotta log something 😂

Nice warmup

Faster than the actual walk out

Last couple of moves were nice, not great otherwise

Surprisingly good, tricky last move

Battle to flash this cramps in the shoulder were begging me to fall off

After hangdogging first go figured out the top sequence and it strung together quite nicely.

Solid warm up. Love fixed gear especially on easier routes that gain a lot of traffic. Dk about the Orange Biner though.

Awesome chad slopers for the first half of the route, really great. Quite thin finish with exceedingly puzzling anchor clip though.

Kate and I just wanted to know why there was a shiny orange biner on the anchor. Turns out it is a poorly chosen perma biner. Probably should be changed to something less conspicuous.

Quicker than walking back out the opposite way

Some gear placement practice, definitely scared but not completely terrified. Lots of improvements to be made with trad!!

Couldn't figure out the crux. I get to a point where I'm out of balance on a too tiny crimp.

Nowra style power slab, on some low friction holds

Not sure if I drifted too far left at points for the full tick

Muddy at the start. Very off-putting.

Finally found a solid beta for me

Very nice with a cool lunge crux. Managed to climb through wetness at the bottom ok

Super nice. Hard bouldery move to start and hard top. I enjoyed working on this.

Awkward to avoid slimy foot holds at the start then good through to a crux move to reach the top. No sign of the brown snake, fortunately.

First attempt - fell at the reach to the pocket when I chose a shallow scoop rather than the very large pocket. Did the move next go when I had the right hold to go for. Looks to be run out from bolts 2 to 3 but feels fine when you lead it.
