Never been on it. I stick to climbs that are significantly easier if your tall. I did flash Turkish Resin without dabbing, but I am not sure how.
Haven't been to horsepens in four years.

Good choice Jo. Did the top freak you out? I got a huge charlie horse in my leg once making that move before the anchors. Fun route for sure.

kinda... that was really the only hard move. my partner told me to save a big cam for the top. i was sketched by that placement so i put in the yellow whatever above it just in case. when i got nervous i remembered my practice lead falls on (borrowed) gear and the fact that it all held and went for it!
it's a SUPER fun route!

I was wondering when we were gonna get to climb with your girl, that may be the difference.
