Ascensions dans The Fossil Cave

Came off on the flake, head jam slipped, even though I had flashed it on the previous route. Rest of the route is really nice, and surprisingly clean and dry. Don’t forget a jam is a jug.

I think the flake move is 19 and the crux of the route proper felt 19 but maybe 18 if it was not so humid…

Pulling on jugs seemed like a good idea in the humidity, and it was. Fun route. Moves under the cave all turn out to be feasible. Got to the big jug out of the cave, great move, but could not keep the feet on to release the left hand.

I think it was the most efficient beta?? but man were there a lot of moves through the crux

Superb roof climbing requiring lots of core tension. Crux clip and draw are quite hard to use Gave it a second burn but didn't have the endurance. Awesome bouldery roofing

Felt pretty desperate coming up through the underling, squeezed in to a tight spot. Pumpy after with some open holds

Went up and put the draws on, then sent first shot! Bucket sized jugs the whole way, the big moves give it the grade

2nd go, perhaps used to be a jurassic pump, but there are multiple no hands rests which make it easier than rabbit trap imo. Great fun though!

Reworked out beta and then had an attempt but the conditions were to bad

Belay tick!!

Rad route that sadly seems like more trouble than it’s worth, Kez and Pat worked out beta that works tho so might have to try it again

I must have missed the jugs on this 17

Dunno why it’s contrived out left - went that way, but didn’t feel like it added anything

Powerful start for me but moved through a range of different styles of climbing. Enjoyed this but also got really confused by the single large lower off ring bolt. Expected to find two at least. Almost climbed up past it onto the next line

Very powerful bouldery start. High tension move to gain the face of the main climb. Flipping that left hand get some good. Sloper hold I used to clip from was cool. Only one fall on the Boulder move before sending

goosed it under the roof

went very clean moving out from the roof, class line!

That was scary but awesome. Also..where did all the holds go (for a 17)?

woah super fun horizontal maddness. love to get back on this

3x laps, dropped it post crux.

hard. No idea about that span...

Jugs

Thuggy roof climbing at its best , I’m coming back for more!

Had a go at roof climbing, made it to the 3rd bolt felt very accomplished, no way I could get to the 4th

Abit dirty today with all the rain.

oh soooooo good. exploration of the jugs and will be back for more.

x2 shots a wild feature with big holds
