Can quite comfortably be done in 1 pitch with a 60m rope and long extensions on few bolts.

Lovely fun climb, I did it with my son. There were plenty of carrots (in my humble opinion) and it felt well protected. An enjoyable grade 8 outing with a few fun moves on the hand traverse off the first slab and a nice belay position after the first pitch.

Fun, easy route. Pretty run out, but it never feels sketchy.

Nothing beats climbing in rain with a pack on.

But I guess its a skill that every wanna be Alpinist should possess. Took a bit of commitment to trust all those wet and slippery holds.

Did it once before in the raging sun, hated it.

Did again in freezing rain, loved it.

Had a bit of an epic climbing this by headlamp at the end of the day, with packs. We hadn't hiked the trails on this end of piddo, and following the trails wasn't hard, just a bit uncertain in the dark.
