攀登 in Shaketown

A little balancy at the second bolt, and then a reachy crux move, but after that its jugs till you're home.

Really fun to find some reasonably graded climbing that requires a little crack technique in Revy.

Despite the first two bolts being close to the arete, the 5.10b version of the climb indeed starts in the left facing corner. If going directly up the arete its at least 5.10c, and there aint no clipping hold for that first bolt.

Classic Revy with the unnecessarily high first bolt. But a really fun climb with a cheeky match.

Like many routes in Revy, the first bolt on this is higher than seems sensible. But the remainder of the climb is funtimes.

The very small holds and balancy moves needed between the 1st and 2nd bolt feels more than 5.10a.

The first move is frustrating (infuriating if its wet) and that bolt placement is just annoying. Be careful to not hit your belayer in the head if you take a fall at the first bolt.
