Ascents of Gardener's Delight

Getting out of Anus. Fun.

Felt like the Blueys

only first pitch barefoot, good fun, nice jams looks hard to protect down low but i wasnt really looking for it

Nod led second pitch direct up wall to rap anchor. No change in grade

Route was gardened yesterday, both pitches, prior to our ascent. Now doable without fighting through bushes. Approached from above. Using the abseil anchor marked "16m" on p308 of Mentz/Tempest it is just on 35m abseil to block at base of route so a 70m would suffice but tie knots in the ends. Gear is good on both pitches. There's some sort of long term inhabitant in the crack just below the top. Heard but not seen.

Top pitch only. Lovely on a warm afternoon

First pitch. Followed the line all the way rather than starting down left. Trickier than it looks

Just the second pitch - less garden, more delight.

would be really good if cleaner
