Driest route of the day - only the start (easy) was wet.

Notch through first bulge was wet, so had to divert to the right. Not easier, just drier.

I was happy to get this clean.

When you've cleaned & bolted a route, you don't get to on-sight it.

Was wet in places, but mostly places that didn't matter.

Was wet in the first crux section, so had to avoid that to the right.

Climbed the start of Ovipositor, until the roof, then escaped left onto Sunday Morning Stroll.

Definitely still a favourite of mine. Wet at the start -- but not anywhere else that mattered, in fact, dry enough to pull the first bulge direct at the bolt, rather than off to the right.

With good rope management, the drag actually isn't too bad. We saw others having real trouble pulling the rope -- but did a TR belay and it was just fine. Not easy, but you don't expect that for a 38m route, but not hard.

Very careful lead, as still recovering from ribs and pneumothorax.

Long, with lots and lots of fun climbing on it. After bolting it in the fall, I had to wait far far too long to actually climb it -- but it was worth the work. Everyone thought it was a fun climb.

Still recovering from ribs and pneumothorax.

A late addition to the cliff, but one of the better routes there.

Somewhat wet, especially at the first crux, but still fun climbing.

Rope management, and long/extendible draws, is definitely a useful skill on this climb.

Marcus tried to lead... and bailed at the crux, so climbed the first part on (effectively) TR, then crux and final third on lead. Not sure what the right "tick type" is for that... so chose "clean".

Nice climbing, too bad it isn't longer.
