Nice recovery T!

Tom D starting the true crux of Powder Keg - the slick and very thin slab at the start.

Starting the climb a little bit to the right makes using the dihedral impossible, but offers a nice undercling and better approaches to the feet you need to stick the reach to the big jug at the lip of the roof.

Fun climb!
