Thats interesting. Thank you very much for showing us, I thought you might climb with us. Yes we enjoyed climbing KC. In the 1st pitch the crack is so wide that I could use the biggest Nut only for the 1st protection, as Will is talking about. Then it was free climb after that. I needed a spring loaded tube or two, if I was tired to attempt.
In the 2nd pitch I used left corner that needed some small nuts. Yes. while maintaining my laybacking I had to put the 1st nut. And there was a big bee hive near the top left beside the line. We were close to it about 1m, we maintained our calmness and were kind-hearted to them. Some of them were just enjoying to fly around us. It has about ten white plates with lots of hanney in that we could see. Looked very yummy. Opps
We should had taken an old carpet or a long wide tape to protect the belay tree. I had felt sorry to that tree when i had to pull my rope from the base.
