Steph getting creative with how to set up a TR on the "Finger Lickin' Good" variation after climbing the original, with a combination of a tension traverse & thin cams to protect against swinging back.
Steph at the base of 'The Moon Also Rises' after I led it. 'Swedin-Ringle' is the chalked line, and 'Three Strikes You're Out' ascends the corner on the right.

Mark starting up the route.
#5s protect much of the route quite well.
Looking down from the new anchors...

View down from the anchors. Rather than chimneying straight up, I went deep inside the chimney where it was more secure and then traversed back out at the top.
Happy easy #5 C4 sliding & climbing. The lower angle and face features on the left keep this wide pretty chill. The bigger chimney is very secure and you can tunnel inside to avoid a consequential fall.
Le route. Sweden Ringle is on the right.
