Ascents of Midhia

Not as sharp as expected. Probably my most mentally scarring climb in a while though. While going to the 5th draw, inhaled a bit of ‘brown lichen’. Just couldn’t reach to safely clip the 5th, so dropped the rope and down climbed…. When I realized it’s not brown lichen. It’s billions (there was a lot) of baby spiders and now they are all on me. I downclimb a bit more, brush off my clothes with one hand… still on, and then realize the jacket is coming off, there’s too many spiders. Epically manage to get the jacket off (there was noise), spit out the spiders in my mouth…. And then sent the route. All day… I’m pretty sure there’s spiders in my lungs now. Luckily I’m not arachnophobic….
