Approach is long and particularly strenuous on the loose scree heading off the canyon track to the base of the climb. We didn’t descend far enough and traversed into the top of pitch 2.
Pitches 3 to 7 are quite good. Some run out sections but climbing was quite nice. Rope drag tends to be the main struggle with long pitches even using double ropes. Quite disappointing that pitches 8 to 10 are much worse for climbing style, rock quality and gear placements. Pitch 8 was terrifying as we ended up putting all our lives in the hands of the thread belay. Rope drag caused a big problem and delayed the process - leading to pitches 9 and 10 being done after sundown. These involved a lot of dirt thrutching. I led pitches 3a, 5 and 8. Left carpark at 8:30am, returned at 6:00pm. It appeared as though there is an escape from the top of pitch 4 back to the scree slope. Should be graded slightly higher and with an X rating as there were some moments where a fall would have been extremely serious. Compared to Tom Thumb this has a much harder approach and the climbing is nowhere near as good. |

Led P1 and P4. P1 was actually not bad even with a few bushes. Start of P2 was highly risky on lead as the flake is flexing a lot and can't hold a wire. Punchy start and awful blocks to land on. Rusty piton and #0.5 in a pocket further left in the roof is the only pro. P3 start was quite punchy and hard to place gear but it worked (#0.3, #0.4 and #0.75). P4 was awkward in a way but not too bad.
I would say the grade is a little higher given the 2 cruxes and the level of risk. Some blocks/holds are not easy to trust. |
