[Hide Comment] Another problem I found in the book with four acorns that deserves more attention. The first move is really tricky until you get the right body position. Cool technical climbing. There's definitely more than one way to get to the top but here's how I did it. Felt around V6 this way. youtube.com/watch?v=O6dPX1v… Jun 19, 2016

[Hide Comment] Honestly I felt finishing up Aromatherapy was a pretty good line and follow a path of least resistance. Had to make use of the big hollow flake up there. Should probably go back and do the 'correct' way but this way kept the grade and was pretty cool. Jul 8, 2020

[Hide Comment] @CrimpDaddy I did the same not knowing I should have continued out left. The low moves and rocking up to the hollow flake (felt sturdy) all felt had enough to still call this V6. Was sharp and burly, but I really enjoyed it. (Beta Spray Warning) I used far out left hand undercling, right hand on the arete, left toe on the obvious slippery step, and a right toe scum/toe hook on the bottom of the arete, power slap your way up the arete until the toe scum can be switched to a heel hook on the right hand start. Match the pinch jug and gaston up high left to the crimp, mostly campus your feet up to the slab at chest height, paste a foot and rock up until you can gain the hollow flake. Aug 20, 2020
