Ascensioni in Lake Catani

felt extremely difficult and scary without big gear

Awesome line, steep climbing on sinker jams. Couldn't commit to the top-out without more pads

Aided up to setup top rope anchor. Easy jams to half way then gets hard with thin hands and finger locks on steep sharp rock. Final climb of the trip so super stoked to get it clean on top rope.

Has potential to be dangerous, take care

Looks so doable from the ground! Needs some rings on this boulder.

I have no idea what the technique is if this is actually a 16! Couldn't figure out the off width bit near the start

A great way to finish the day. Cool in the shade. Gums in flower. Great views.

Scrambled off to the right

Bottom part felt quite stiff, I gotta train cracks more.

Balancy climbing

Had to top-rope - sketchy place to clip the second bolt from and with too much rope out it didn't look like it would be a nice landing.

Runout at the top but the climbing is easy from the last piece of gear.

Very good. NOTE - The home made aluminium fixed hangers on the top slab are dodgy as fuck. Aluminium (hangers) and stainless steel (bolts) will result in galvanic corrosion; plus aluminium doesn't have the tensile strength of steel and can become brittle with repeat stress loading - and there is stuff all metal at the bottom of the lower of the two hangers. This is definitely unsafe over the long term and the hangers need replacing.

Most definitely NOT 17. Steve Toal's BUFFTi guide has this climb at 14, but more like 12 and very well protected

Definitely NOT 14. Steve Toal's BUFTi guide has it at 12, but more like 10

Nice moves and at least a grade harder if you stay low under the third hanger and traverse the dyke to Flawed Vision, place the RPs, then finish up Flawed Vision.

Nice cruisy, well protected slab

Tricky bit past the hard to see carrot, but not bad if you're tall

Not as runnout as it looks
