Description
Super fun and often overlooked way to climb the incredible upper arete of Amandla. Climb to the first chains of Iron Horse but lean out left and clip the first of four remaining bolts on Amandla. Rest as best you can before pulling out to compress, slap, layback and pinch your way up the classic hanging arete to the anchor below the roof.
Since Blake's writing of his description of Full Horse Power, it seems as though the original anchor of Amandla was moved to right below the roof from lower on the arete. This makes the current Power Horse a step harder and much more full value than it would have previously been stopping lower, but taking the Full Horse Power extension out over the roof looks like it still packs some extra punch.
