It's going to take a pretty neat trick for this to not end up the ST 2013 TR of the year! Great job!

A fantastic climb. It really looked in great condition - hard to imagine that parts of it fell off the week before.

Cheers, Roy

Thanks everyone , i couldn't stop thinking about you guys on the first ascent so many
years ago .True hardmen breaking into the unknown .
As far as gear we brought three cams and a few nuts . 14 screws which we needed
for we dropped a few and a bunch of runners and draws
We managed the route in 8 pitches and give it a WI 4 plus Canadian.
One 70m cord

We spent About 8 hours on the route with a lovely pipe nap in the sun on top.
