Half Breed 20

December 16, 2003 12:21 pm General

Hard pulling to get through the roof, and up the arete at the left end of The Alcove. Climb the easy face to a steepening exit beside the bush, with surprisingly tricky moves on the slopers to top out. Five bolts and anchor rings.

Pretty psyched about climbing at the moment. Britten crag is really an awesome place, with good friction on overhanging basalt rock. It’s a bit like Muckross in some ways, with lots of pretty good flat holds, and with enough muscle the overhangs are pretty enjoyable. Climbed 2 19s and a 20 today, and felt slightly disappointed to have to leave the crag as the sun went down. I’m totally going to give the 23 in the cave a go next time, it looks like a cracker of a route.

This entry was specifically for the climbers who complain about having to wade through dull work stuff to get to the juicy climbing bits.
