Round two, actually climbing it. Discovered how terrifying it is to clip and then haul rope while friction slabbing with no positive handholds or feet. Amazing climb, absolutely fantastic view, and just the most delicate friction slabbing at the top you could imagine. There were a few moments where I thought I was gone but I forced myself to just stand up and push through it. This route can be easily done with one 60m rope, no idea why the guidebook says what it does, there's no 35m pitch. I think Gerry might have been thinking about 50m ropes while writing the book. I abseiled to the bottom with two big abseils (using twin ropes) without any problems, noting that the midpoint never failed to pass the next set of anchors, and had heaps of rope left. — with Tim Schofield
