I had a couple of uncertain moments on it but with some beta spraying, unexpectedly, it went the first go. Really good climbing.

Finally I pulled the sequence at the top, third go today, third time/trip on it. The pressure was on, knowing I was allowed just one session on Madge this trip 😜

The first go I looked like you put a figure skater on the rock; I just could not get through the roof and was nowhere close to getting it (roofs are not my favourite you see). Then, I ran through the moves in my head several times, saw my friends ticking it and magically got it second go. Amazing climbing plus some mental game involved. Pleasure to get to the top.

I got it second go after sorting out the traverse (if only I noticed this low left footer on my flash attempt…) Probably a bit soft for 24 but I’ll give myself this grade as I didn’t use the holds in the corner. 😉

Really cool rout with some exciting moves over the draw. Had two burns yesterday evening but blew the crux on the red point attempt. We had to go back and I was left with no epidermis on my fingertips and the feeling of defeat. This morning i taped my digits and decided to go for it; I had to fight with accumulated fatigue (5th day on) and 80% humidity. It was worth it.

Easy and nice climbing to a cruxy bit, which we misread I guess (didn't use the undercling that other people talk about), then easy again.

It was really steamy and slippery today. Anyway, the moves on this route are great. The fact that I blew it my first go made me find a great beta for a move that I thought was horrible and desperate.

Onsight/flash didn’t go as I was slapping blindly in search of reasonable holds at the very bottom.I got it 2nd attempt (flash from the second draw up), having some good beta and a good rest in the break. The top section involved hard pulling and fight with the Pump and fear that I would drop it just before the chains. Really good moves on this one.

On my tick attempted I gave up as after clipping the second draw I was completely entangled in the rope and could not disentangle. As we were under time pressure (basically on the way the airport) I left the second bolt pre-clipped. I still give myself a tick as this was was not a crucial clip.

You got to trust the guide book when it says that routes at Logan are pumpy. I messed up my onsight at the last draw when the relaxing climbing suddenly turned into desperate search for holds. Went 2nd go.

It was the easiest available route, so I did it as a warm up. Not the best idea, as it has a hard section high up. I had to go up there 3 times as I messed up the beta the second time.

Back on Madge after a year. I change a beta for the top bit and went left instead of right. Gave it two red point burns but ran out of gas at the last draw again. I wish it didn’t take so much skin of fingertips… they are so bright pink.

I had one go at it and did all the moves before the start, which is the crux I think. I hope I can figure out a beta next time.
Pretty big, cool ,throwy moves with not much rest.
