Ernie Hansche on Cow Patty...


Description 

A fun wandering line on crimps and friction....
A little lichen covered in parts, but it doesn't take away from the climb.... A few cruxes but no one stopper move....
Wicked fun and highly recommended to those who enjoy long, techy, footy, less-than-vertical climbing....
The book says you need 2 ropes to lower, but a 60m rope will just make it (tie a knot in the other end of the rope)....


Location 

The far right route highest up in the gully....


Protection 

9 bolts to anchor at a sloping stance.
