The start is a bit spooky, backed off the first attempt so wont call it an onsight, but it still felt like an onsight to me.

Thought I still had unfinished business with this "14", But just checking the crag I've learned that I had already redeemed myself and that 3 years ago I also thought it was a 14.
Also, now I know why they say not to crack climb after rain, god was this climb wet, mossy and spoogey. |

First frog 20 🥳, and an old demon slain.
Took down low because I climbed myself into a bit of trouble by being too eager to reach the first ledge. Upon taking, my .3 skated all the way to the edge but thankfully it held, good I didn't whip on it 😅. Down climbed and stripped gear, for a very desperate but clean send on the 2nd go. Would have been nice to have triples of .5 and .75, spent ages trying to figure out gear for the last .75 size section of thr climb, but nothing else fit and I had wisely not brought any big nuts. After nearly trembling off I placed a shitty .4 for emotional support and blasted to the finish ledge. |

Took me a couple of tries to figure out the start, and still nearly peeled off, onsighted the rest. What an amazing route! I keep getting on 3 star classics thinking to myself this must be the best route I've ever climbed, only to have my mind blown by the next one yet again

Gabby did an excellent job leading P1 as her first trad 17.
Had done this before, but for the life of me couldn't remember P2. Until I pulled around and got a good view of the traverse, and the memories of my sheer terror even on second came flooding back. The traverse felt a lot easier despite climbing into a trap, but god was it hard getting established into the chimney. |

Such a fun adventure! Got a little bit confused route finding at P1, looking for the sport anchor to the left is probably what I should have done from the beginning. P2 felt much easier than my memory, P3 still seemed intimidating but wish it was longer.
Somehow managed to lose my sandal at the start of P3, but luckily it dropped all the way to the ground landing 10m to the side of the rapel landing spot. |

My first trad lead
|
Showing all 31 ascents.
I worried all the people saying double rack is fine were sandbaggers, so instead I made my own life significantly harder by bringing quads of mid size cams, double rack plus an extra 2 would have been plenty.
Definitely the best 19 I've tried!
