8m. A taxing traverse from the right, along the sloping finger break, gains a shallow flake. A committing long stretch and ancient chipped hold (lest we forget) reaches the Valkyrie stance. The traverse is often done as a good V3 (6b) problem. There is also an excellent Direct Start using a blatant chipped hold. This is only V2 (6a) and is historically less satisfying. USER COMMENTS
Bloody marvellous. "Worrying stretch" for full pose finish head up Valkyrie (wussed out when I first did it and scampered off, on return visit did full finish over the top)
not 6b, prob hard 5c. Awesome climbing though. |
