Ascensiones en Aragon como Hang dog

2 tries with beta from Doug. Another one to come back for.

Fell just before the chain.

I just checked out this impressiv Route in the first shot to the first anchor.

This thing is AWESOME, got to through bulge after 7c+ anchors and lowered.

A redpoint burn of the 7c+. Got quite high on the last tufa. It was dark.

Warm up. BTB working the moves. All came together ok.

Dropknee crux. Not tight enough on setup. Pulled on and went to last rest. Quick sit then to anchors.

Missed the bump from the heel before the crux. 2 sits to the top.

Did all the moves straight up after someone 'warmed up' on it putting my gear in.

Highpoint. So powerful

Highpoint. Marginally higher. 2 more sits to the top.

Strong burn. 1 hang. From pre crux to anchors. Very encouraging.

Worst. Effort. Ever.

No kneebar pad no send.

Took bat and ball and went home. Dismal attempt

First burn. Jumped off the top. Why are the anchors all the way out there?

Surprisingly good 2nd burn. Made it to the dyno (8th bolt). Then shagged for the top bit. That's where you'll fall. The top.

First burn today fell just above kneebar, but figured out the top better.

4th burn. Bloody pumped, and fell off the top after the dyno. Sigh! Very close...

Fell after the dyno again. Sooo tired.

Wow, very good short route with big moves on slopers an tufers, I needed 6 shots to find the perfect beta where I didn't need to much power indurance...

Climbed up the hole route this time with to short rests at the crux.

Matt told Lucy and I to get on this so we did! Ahh the crux was so cool the top slab is so scary when you're pumped silly! Just bolt to bolted to just get a feel of the full on power endurance steepness..

Such a great climb. No wonder the masses want to get on it! Got to he hard moves on the flash attempt. haha

To the flake rest before main crux.

A slow burn to workout the main crux better. All sorted using the high thin pinch. Going to be tricky getting the finger slot accurate. That'll be the redpoint crux I think

Lazy attempt at getting into the first pocket. 3 sits to the top.

Fumbled the pocket AGAIN. 1 sit to the top.

May have been just a bit tired by now. Pocket fumble shenanigans

1 week ago I had several goes at both cruxes, took a huge whipper, made lots of girly whimpers and got so scared.. Today I got through everything first shot, sitting at every bolt but hey pulled the moves now the decision to commit to this project or not...?

Just another pocket fumble. A trend is forming. Pulled on and went o the top. Changed sequence.

Another burn to redeem the ordinary attempts.

Warming up on route. Struggled getting over the bulge. Lowered once that was figured out.

Messed the approach to the crux. Pulled crux easily and worked moves to top. Ready for RP

Messed crux approach again. Two moves before throw I had forgotten how to climb.

So today my goal was to link both cruxes and maybe climb to the anchors.. big call considering I sat on pretty much every bolt last time. Matt Pascoe has given me some coaching and has advised that I sit at the first first knee bar rest and then climb gracias fina to the top before clean before attempting any red point burns. So first go sat at the knee bar rest, went for it and managed to link 3/4 of the crux I was super happy. Worked the top section but still felt really reach.

Again sat at the knee bar rest. This time fell off the last move of the crux yeow.. progress... found better beta for the top and worked it into my brain... still have not taken that whipper.. so run out to the top... also found a few more knee bars

Remembered beta. Got to the pinch for throw setup. Missed dyno. I love falling off these classic lines. Such good climbing.

Fell at same place, Refined beta with a heel for throw and leaving the ledge.

Tickled the throw hold. Tired

Second day on shit fest! Couldn't pull through the crux... so i changed my beta and was still freaking out at the top because i couldn't relax into the rest.

New beta didn't work so well so changed it back, tweaking the feet and took the fall from the top yeow... see how we go after a rest day...

With some extra knee bar beta off Lucy, I was able to rest before the crux and after.. pretty good go, worked out some more foot beta and finally went to the top without sitting.

Elephant ball warmup. Felt strong but slipped out of the bulge crack. Spoogey today.

Warm-up play.. Everything felt good!
