'The Wizard' follows an interesting path to some good climbing. The slab pitch is in yellow, the 2nd pitch is a rising traverse in red, and the final pitch is in blue.<br> <br> The rap anchor along the way (as highlighted in pink) at the top of 'The Gibblet' is semi-defunct (old webbing), and we skipped that belay.

This 360 degree core shot resulted from my partner's fall from the end of the crux section. The core shot was about 6.5 meters from the lead end of the rope. Judging by how the rope was running and the distance from core shot to rope end, we think the culprit was a sharp, vertical "mini-arete" located toward the top of the first part of the climb (about 3 feet below where you start traversing left). The rope was a pretty new 9.2 Topaz from Edelrid. I think the core shot would've happened to any rope, and we were happy only the sheath was damaged.<br> <br> I've done Kloof a number of times, whipped, belayed whips, and never gotten a core shot. Maybe a fluke, but I thought I'd post just so folks are aware. I don't know how/if it's possible to prevent the rope from running over that edge.
