Description

A low start to Cheers to Voyager. Start with low sidepulls from a sit. A hard opening move (probably with the left hand) leads to more tricky climbing and a dabby but manageable finish.

Location

Just above Bruised and Confused.

Protection

Pads, a couple for sure, maybe 3.

[Hide Comment] This is a pretty cool little climb. Ian, could you clarify which holds you started on? Apr 10, 2022
[Hide Comment] Hopefully obvious sidepulls... I know the bottom was the hardest part. Likely the obvious lowest ones from a comfortable sit if I recall. Maybe the chalk in the picture could help..? Apr 10, 2022
[Hide Comment] I ended up starting with my left hand on the sloper rail out left, and my right hand on the crimp in the seam. Kinda funky because of the walls/blocks next to you, but not too bad. Another nice start option would be the sloper rail out left and the heavily chalked pinch for the right hand. A little easier from there, but a nice comfortable position. Apr 11, 2022
