This gem was sitting right under our noses for all of these years. Mad Props to Phillip for putting in the effort to bolt and send this thing.
After I sent this, Philip asked me what i thought the grade was. I said, "13a is fair." After a pause... "But 12d sounds right."
We had a good chuckle.
Easy top rope access from Fine nine means you have no excuse not to get on this and work out the moves if you're too frightened to go on the sharp end from the ground. When you send though, be-sure to be leading it for the full experience. Sep 20, 2018
