It is a bit of an epic climb. the guide makes it seems less committing than it is. it has stars and is grade 13... sounds like a good beginners long multi pitch to me, but not really.
the start is hard to find, its very committing, retreat after about pitch 4 would start to become very slow and hard. a bit chossy in places, a bit wandery in places, between many belays is a 10m scrub bash through steep bushy stuff...
Its a classic adventurous trad route!!
I would think alot of people who set out to do this on a nice summers day will finish at night and be dehydrated. I would think im an average paced climber and it took me 12 hours car to car, which 10 hours of that would have been spent out in the sun getting sooo dehydrated! i thought 3L of water was enough but i think i could have done with 6L.
Id be interested to know how many people have epics on this route? |
