Ascents in Masson Lees

First 7a!

Had a shot and fell on the last crux move due to bad foot placement.......turn ya hips Craig.....ya muppet......have to come back next year now!

Put the draws on and cleaned it up a bit.

Loose holds after the second bolt. Retreated.

Excellent climb on reasonable rock. Some holds requires a long reach.

Good balancing exercise at the crux.

Some holds have broken off. Still climbable, and requires sustained effort.

First 7a+ onsight!

First 7b!

Put on the draws for a red point attempt and checked out the moves.

Pulled through the lower crux and pumped out on the first good jug......damn it.....next time.

First shot putting the draws on again. Fell above the crux.

Fell above the crux. Disappointed but climbed well through until there.

Tried again but was smoked.....oh well next time.

Tied in and sent the route in under four minutes.......climbed super clean an fast........must have been channelling Ondra

Put the draws on and rewired my head for the finishing crux move.....

Two RP attempts after putting the draws in

Fabulous at the grade and enjoyable movement.

The 4th bolt is slightly loose.

Dropped the os due to soggy, slimy pockets

What a great little route. Keep a look out for those drilled holes .

Oh boy, what a dirty little route. Good to warm up though..

Some loose holds, but excellent view from the top.
