Ascensioni in Stepped Down Wall

mossy flakey runnel

Great route, hard to read on the on-sight also wet in the mornings with seepage

Super dirty, so onsight attempt turned into a brush and check out.

Should have got this on second go but my foot slipped on a dirty foothold as I was clipping the fourth bolt and I had a nice fall.

Easy red point on third go. Quite a nice climb once it has been cleaned.

Very dirty....

Absolutely filty

The route is true to its name, needs a really good clean before it's climbable.

Reachy climbing not particularly friendly to shorties. Start is cruxy.

Feels impossible then you do it #2ndgo lol... tick tack the feet up, left hand pinch right hand slopey crimp then balance and move dynamically with the right hand to the ledge. Sick move, soft 22 climbing to the top, direct is most fun for the last move!!!!

Only one move at the grade so the route felt quite soft as a red point. Suits my style perfectly though. Absolutely brilliant climb. #3rdGo

First go. Discovered the crux quite low down.

Second go. Climbed it clean to last hold before the jugs at the anchors and pumped out on a sloper trying to get in position to go for the layback jug Gutted I didn't get it second go.

Red point. Third attempt.

Another really nice line by John Newby at Frog Pond. The delicate technical crux is between the second and third bold. This is beautiful technical face climbing on slopers the whole way.

After the crux there is some easier climbing if you know where you're going and don't muck around too much. Having said that you can see from the video that I muck around a lot

Technical start up to a very tricky crux then sustained climbing to the top. Very awesome route.

First go. Couldn't get off the ground. What a powerful start. Then went up and placed the draws and worked the crux

Working again, needed to find which holds past third bolt are actually go

Proper go. Almost stuck crux move but fell off. Need to come back fresh

Great route, pretty hard and pumpy for a 22... personal grade id put this at 23/7a

Clear crux between 4th and 5th bolts. Fantastic Technical climbing.

Onsight attempt. Couldn't read the section between 3rd and 4th bolt. Got pumped working out the remainder, but did a careful check out after that and found a jug which helped a lot on the second go.

Red point on my second go. I am getting the hang of this #2ndGo discipline. Just do a very careful checkout and rehearse the cruxes on your first go, take a good rest, refuel and then fire it off Really nice climb.

Was pretty dirty at the top. Hard if your short.

Awesome climb totally rate it!

Go a bit left for a side pull after 3rd bolt. Not sure is it off route

worked out the beta
