Description Suggest change

Long trad lead with adequate protection. This climbs the left side of the face left of Italian Arete. Face moves and crack moves. When I lead this I lost my 1st piece, and got a little nervous so I placed a piece directly under the flake before the face with the bolt. I didn't put a runner on it and my partner didn't correct me. The rest of the way up the climb it felt like I was pulling an elephant. Man, was I glad to see the top.

Protection Suggest change

Few bolts to use along the way. Most on the slab. Medium to small nuts for the bottom , 2 or 2.5 friend above the stunning slab to protect the small roof.    Small cams  toward the top.  Mussy anchors at the top.  60 meter rope seems adequate.  Creative pro placements are needed.
