I climbed Pompadour years ago when I couldn't climb much harder. However I spent a lot of time on chossy, run out grade 11s, 12s 13s and 14s. The first few moves are not much different to the grade 18 to the right (which I climbed, latter on, when I'd run out of easy stuff to do)
There have been quite a few accidents in the mountains lately on low grade (13,14,15) climbs. Unfortunately, even on low grade climbs gravity works just the same and the ground is just as hard when you hit it. |
