Description Suggest change

Mother makes you put up a good fight! The only thing that detracts from this pitch is the fact that the rock at the crux isn't that good, over time this pitch will become harder as the holds break. Regardless, the climbing leading to the crux and just after is very high quality and stout.

Once through the awkward start embark into 12+ thin fingers laybacking and stemming. A short flare leads to the crux section. Thin and hard face climbing lead to a thank-god finger lock. Sandy edges and feet make this a bit spicy on the lead. A short hand crack leads to the final 5.12 section to the chains. The routes stays on you until the very end!

Protection Suggest change

A good amount of everything from Grey C3's to hands. Mostly grey, purple, blue and yellow TCU sizes cams. Long slings down low help with rope drag. 35 Meter pitch, you need a 70 Meter cord.
