Ascensioni di Crown of Thorns

Couldn't figure out what's supposed to be so great about this route. Awkward and inconsistent with a choss band to negotiate.

Spectacular route that had me fighting al the way to the chains.

Great line and worth the rating. sustained and fun.

Super great route. Such a neat move to get out of the hueco.

Felt pretty moderate this go. Was a little flash pumpped to the cave and then at the chains, but got it done.

Hung draws and two good goes. Should have had it the last go, but screwed up the undercling hole at the last bolt. Should have just tood up. Good whipper though!

putting the draws on, no problem with the finger, just no strength in it. being cautious still. such an awesome climb!

finger still too delicate. first lap on lead dogging. trying not to use my finger. had a tr lap after, not using the finger but trying to stay fit... and not get depressed about being in the red and not being able to climb...

Rated as nearly the best 5.11c in the Red - well described, this is awesome!
