Ascensiones en Fern Point Party Buttress

Fora short route it packed a punch. A gnarly warm up for me

Much easier than smooth operator. Quite nice.

Some amazing holds and a long journey on mostly TCUs and some finger/ thin hand pieces. Gear sometimes spaced.

Nice climb, 4 distinct sections with hands free rests. 11c on Mountain project and in guide book.

Ha ha, “ the fist crack” at the start was hard for me, ended up having to layback it to do it clean at some hard grade after trying all sorts of crazy moves. The rest of the route is great.

No one seems to do the end any more, full of cobwebs

brilliant movement. glad I TR'd so I didn't have to worry about gear and could focus on enjoying.

commiting start on lead (also for following). great movement but finicky gear

Main route is excellent. The traverse finish is difficult and dangerous. ~5.10b. 2nd up to mid-route, then took over lead.

Sustained hand/fist jams. 10b is the appropriate grade, not 5.9 (new book ed.)

1 rest at 4th bolt

Nearly an onsight. Traverse freaked me out a bit.
