Adjacent Routes 16m. An excellent, bold route crossing the wide smooth wall. From a grassy ledge climb the steep slab just left of the corner to the start of a narrow ledge system. A delicate foot-traverse leads out left until better holds can be followed directly to the top. USER COMMENTS
A realy nice route, a fall from the end of the taverse could be a bit iffy but the gear is ok if you have small friends.
No overly hard moves and not physically demanding, but hard mentally for those who don't like sticky situations. A head climb.
which ledge should you travrese along? is a lovely route. well-named.
Practice your calm thoughts mantra and deep breathing exercises before heading out on the traverse. Peenut placement near the start but more of a "slows you down" pro. Lots of fun, and a great feeling when you reach the safety of the final moves.
A most enjoyable delicate route. There is however a good deal more runners than the grade & route description might suggest. The traverse has an 'interesting' hold about half way along to keep you honnest though...
i thought the gear on this was fine(no less than any other vs). to be honest i think there are much better routes than this on plantation.
You need to traverse the lowest ledge, otherwise you will find plenty of gear and good holds and you wouldn't want to do that would you!
Lovely route, added a bit of spice to it by forgetting my climbing shoes and leading it in trainers! |
