Ascensioni in Lost World come Hang dog

Damo finally got me on this. Better than it looks! Will be back to continue working it. x2 Dog Laps

Managed to work through the crux on the headwall. Ace! Will be a real pumper on link!

Crux foothold is Choss. Has been glued but keeps crumbling away. Such a shame as it climbs really nicely.

Good fun. I crumbled more of that glued foothold at the crux, but found some beta that still goes at 26ish. The top needs some serious cleaning, however.

didn't figure out the crux but left thinking it was possible, next time

Still can't figure that one move out. it stole too much skin to give more than 2 gos

Good to actually do most of the moves and a good project to work on.

A couple low falls then managed to get through the first roof for the first time on the sharp end, thanks to Tom's beta.

Hard start to fun corner, couldn't figure all the moves or clips this time round but have a few ideas. The top half was awesome and possible despite the left wall and clipping jug running with water. Another new project!

Slopers and heel hook heaven. You won't need your belay glasses for this one. However, you will need a good belayer, preferably one heavier than you as you'll get pretty close to the ground if you fall on the first three clips.

Needed a good scrubbing in all the cracks at the top.

Still felt hard. If you left something in the cave let me know and I'll get it back to you.

getting closer

Really good line! Description might need an update, there are fresh bolts all the way. Will come back for proper send.

Le hard

Sussing the moves. Clean form the ledge. It looks like there is now substantially less of the roof than there once was.

Sussing the gear. Clean form the ledge.

Stay left at the top crux.

Extremely hard for the grade?! I think I’m a long way off the send which is surprising for a 23. Can tell that it’s a classic and deserves more assents though!

Awesome little gem. Slab is worthy in it's own right, and the change of gear for the end is awesome (but hard at the top).

So lovely to check out a new crag. Please go there! It needs traffic to clean up the routes. This climb was crazy tough for the grade unless I was really missing some beta.

This has everything I’m not good at - loved it. Great training for me. Not sure how I’d go leading it.

I found this one hard! Tom found some good beta which i'll need to try.

Bit wet so had to work around and use dry holds. Will go when dry

first moves are the hardest

Nice slabby start with small holds. Pinching into sick mono!

A little disappointing, one fall missed the chipped hold which you can't see on the wall. next time.

Couldn't figure out how to clip the 5th bolt so tried to top rope it. Still don't know how to clip off terrible slopers 😢

Some fun moves on good rock through the bulges

Stay low on the traverse. Tricky section up the arete with limited holds on the obvious crux.

warm up

Fell off after a handhold broke near the end. Didn't bother doing it again.
