I climbed the Libretto/C.S. Concerto combo last year during one of the inevitable Araps thunderstorms. I think I got lured off route on the second pitch by booty (a nut in a horizontal break which I couldn't get out) and finished the arete moves on soaking rock with water in all the jugs. That felt a bit exciting, a bit of rope drag, cold hands and I don't recall the pro being brilliant. |
