Ascensões em Omega Block

Booty mission. Started up Witch/WT. Hard to keep oneself from bridging into Romulus after the bolt.

Punted off the last droppable move first go. Second was a shambles.

Amazing route despite almost freezing my fingers off in the first half

Climbed this four times today, the mission set was that no jugs were allowed. Once you take away the easy holds it is actually very enjoyable climbing - I had a lot of fun keeping my balance using the less than ideal holds and very small feet chips. Some nice challenging moments.

Not too bad today but doing the arete straight up without cheating by going left still spooks me.

Second go led to send! Good climb, interesting all the way up

Hang dog to acquaint myself the beta

I finally completed the climb for the first time. The first crux felt easy with beta know-how. Fell on the arete as I couldn't find/commit to the big jug. Definitely going to go next time.

It went with ease, and I was baffled by how much I struggled with it previously. I felt a bit anti-climatic even.

Nevertheless, it is still a beautiful climb, with one of my most memorable jams involving jamming your entire right forearm into a hole behind the flake before the crux. Its like those in the movies where you stick your hand in to activate a hidden switch.

About time I had a go. The onsight, I guess, was a bit of... Wishful Thinking. Pumped out just below the rest, near the 4th bolt. Ended up sitting at the arete before the move to the rooflet. Solid climb, and keen for another go!

I failed so hard that I unsent it. I guess Boogie is going back on the project list.

Very bouldery. The crux seemed to be between the first two bolts which I believe requires big moves on terrible holds, though it's also very desperate, albeit physically easier, to get to the third bolt as well. Additionally, I'm not sure it actually was, but it felt run out between the second bolt and third bolt, which added to the spice of my terrified throw for the jug at the third bolt. The climb finishes on an interesting thrutchy chimney after the fourth bolt, through the moss, which was a bit unexpected, but very welcome.

In the end, I couldn't do the moves between the first and second bolt after quite a few tries and a variety of betas, so I ended up skipping through it by hauling on the rope. I did everything else clean.

It would probably be recommended to stick clip the first and second bolts, since the crux is before the second bolt.

Finally came back and got it. It was still hard haha. Stronger fingers for the finger cams now.

First attempt I fell after second clip, added extended sling to third bolt to protect a bit better. Got it after a little rest

Chose this one for my warmup route and boy was I warm by the end of it!

Really had to turn on the try-hard to get through the spooky crux on this one.

Spend a lot of time at the bottom of the crux not being able to figure out the moves and contemplating a retreat.

Eventually I committed to a hard move on a sweaty hand jam, followed by sequence of loud grunts and swear words.

Was pretty close to peeling off the wall at one point but managed to summon that last bit of send power needed to defeat the Witch.

Very enjoyable

What a crux! Fun sequence though. Took a little whip and then committed to get through. Will come back to this one.
