Ascensions dans The Kitchen

Just as pumpy as “chopped” I reckon!

Absolute pump fest! So fun though. It’s says “shade all day” which is sorta’ true the bolts are in shade, but the holds aren’t! Some hot slopers by 11 am! https://youtu.be/Ssp6t4_gZKM?si=fK8RaydJO-MS0jRh

New proj lol.

Made good progress tonight. I'm definitely getting stronger, but I need to train harder.

first attempt felt strong putting draws up only required 1 sit in the crux, came back in the afternoon for some cooler weather. Had the whole crew on it so only time for 1 attempt, not that my skin could handle anymore. Unfortunately couldn't resist and elbow over the edge once I got to the horizontal section. Stoked to do better than a year ago but still the route will call me back.

Logging the dog because this route is sensational. Cool positions, yummy holds, great sunset spot.

Definitely not my best session on this. Will have to put in double effort next time.

Good progress tonight, got some micro beta figured out that definitely helps on one of the harder moves.

No great progress today, spent the time just trying to get more familiar with the moves.

Super cool project 👌

technically not an onsight because I climbed the first part before to clean the draws off "Hacked!". Not very technical, yet super pumpy. Crux is the black streak because you have to heelhook trough that section.

I guess I did the FFA on this one?! Bouldery Crux after the first Bolt, cleaned some loose crimps and footholds off the wall while climbing. Quite scary but it could be one of the best lines here if cleaned.

Felt more like 7c/+ tbh, the single moves were nails. Bailed from the last draw. The grade seems quite sandbaged compared to the other climbs.

it was like a dream dude

x3 burns on this one over two sessions , came tantalisingly close on the last go but just didnt have it in me. Will definitely be back to conquer this picturesque climb. Long story short i got chopped.

Putting the draws on for Kobi n jard. 10/10 condies, first bit of sun in a few days.

What a stunning line. I first saw a picture of this at the start of the year, originally not knowing where it was. Six months later and we happen to be camping just up the road, ha! Amazing climbing in an amazing position. It was a proper battle going for it putting the draws up

Bitta flow after watching the boys and Belle's huge efforts. Super mega. How good is that viewing platform behind

An impromptu side stop at the kitchen on our way down from visiting the gang in herveys. I was quite impressed by the unique style of 'slab arete'. Some very strange footwork involving leg hooks and smearing with the inside of the foot. At 4yrs into climbing, i love to be given the opportunity to do some new moves and this climb was packed with them. It became doubly worth while when yim rested on his PAS, then somehow ended up with the pas around the rope under the draw and shortroped himself above bolt when he went back on. How..?

Mega line.

Burned off the top, right where it flattens out. Epic line, awesome location. Stunned by Tom's flash and Moby's send. Yewww
