kingbiscuit's Logbook (13 ascents)

Good first trad lead. Nice mix of cam/nut placements. Good if you are getting use to placing gear.

This was my first beginner lead, and it was perfect for feeling secure. The bolts are so close at one part my friend actually z-clipped on accident. I guess I am alone on this but I felt the face to be an 8+. Maybe I just missed a major hold. Susie's wild ride had more sustained difficulty, but this climb was really easy up until the face which I thought was almost on par with susie's wild ride.

If you are using a 60m rope from the very bottom, be prepared to use almost the whole thing. If you set a top rope anchor make sure to clip into the bolts and just set it up from the face. The ledge on top is deceivingly attractive, but it is actually scarier setting up the anchor up there.

Not sure the style on this as I had top-roped it prior to sport leading it.

You have to be really patient with this climb once you get to the face section. There are some few millimeter holds that actually felt really strong once I committed to them. Really well protected. I only felt unsafe once on the climb.

Only my second sport lead outdoors, but if felt really good.
