Description Suggest change

P1: great hand crack in a right facing corner. 5.9 45m
P2: garbage climb up broken flakes and heather gully. 5.8 35m
P3: We climbed up a short chimney (with hand cracks inside for hands and protection), but went left up a small slab and into a tough stem box. I think the actual climb goes slight right after the chimney, also into a stembox, but probably much easier than what we did. It was supposed to be a 5.10a pitch, 25m
P4: Thin and fun finger crack. 5.10d 35m
P5: Money pitch. Starts off tight hands, becomes great hands, then you can go left for more hands (I believe) or you can go right for a zig-zag finger lock... PUMPY! Supposed to be 5.10b (maybe the left way?) 45m
P6: Unless you have a #6 with you, an unprotected 5.7 off-width. Not tall... Summit!

Location Suggest change

West face of South Spire

Protection Suggest change

Full set of nuts
Doubles from tips (0.2 BD size) to 0.75, then maybe triples of 1s and 2s.
Then singles of 3 and 4
Some people suggest RPs. I don't think I used any, but I did use small nuts.
