4 out of 5 stars First Ascent

Ranga Vudukuru, a climber based in Hyderabad, took me to Orvakal Rock Garden for the first time. He suggested that I lead up this tower along the arête line, climbing over the roofs all the way to the top. From the ground I saw no solid protection under the first roof which appeared to require lots of muscle power to pull over. So I decided that I would step around the first roof and keep the line close to the arête to maintain its consistent difficulty level. The face on the right has lots of rock features and is probably at 5.1 level.
