Ascents of Pain Street

stuck about 3 moves from the anchor

Excellent clean slabbing into juggy roof action.

Not too bad. Clipped stuck wire

It felt like the crux of this was getting up Cassandra Direct to the roof. Hadnt done it this way before - very good.

Hidden gem.

Excellent! I'd rate this up with the other great roof climbs of arapiles. Will be back. Awesome position, with a tricky sequence at the lip. You're in the roof for quite a long time! You will need a medium cam or two after the bolt near the lip to prevent a potential slab fall if it all goes wrong.

Nails and a bit dangerous

thought provoking slab, then a pumpy, tricky finish. good fun

Super good. Brilliant slab up to roof, especially the 22 section, then awesome full exposure roof.

Had a few shots and a few falls. Not up for that much steep radness at the moment. Didn't place gear, did hurt foot. Clean to the roof, had a few shots, then finished back across to Cassandra anchors.

Pumpy, complex and awesome sequence through the roof

Epic position. After a couple of goes at the sequence above the lip amongst the sea of misleading chalky holds, I was too smashed and had to resort to some aid to top out. unreal exposure and exciting falls.

Linked into Cassandra Direct for a warmup. With the chalk washed off, I pumped out before I found the crucial holds to turn the lip to the anchors. If I wasn't time limited I'd give it another lap for the tick, but I have bigger finish to fry. A bit runout when you don't bring supplemental gear. Exciting roof thugginess. Watch out for red herring chalk!

Easy with the beta from Paul.

Struggled working out path through roof. Placing gear made it tricky.

Tough to pull over the lip, grit your teeth & go.

with the germans. very poorly bolted

look around when your at the crux- watch for rope drag
