That whole crag need some Gluies hold reinforcement. I was terrified of all the
creaking flakes. |

It is good to see a new pic.
I too, would have liked to have seen a bit more of the route below, though appreciate the comment about the next move being a big one to the pocket above, and makes me want to see that move!
Photographically it is interesting, and truthfully worth 3 stars out of 5, however I downgraded my 'score' (sorry), because as an old fart trad climber it annoys me to see photos of potentially good adventure with a bolt at shoulder height (and pre-clipped at that), while the last is still above feet height, ... further along with the fact that I can count 5 other Ubolt/brackets in the pic!
The rock looks great though the photographer has no control over the good looking rock features other than exposure of the shot, and these days it is automatic for the most part?
I like the perspective angle and appreciate that this would have taken some effort to get to.

@ knot looks funky
I am not sure there is any advantage in a figure 8 tied that loosely? |

Rod - that is the whole climb...in fact you can see every hold in the photo. |

Yannick got ripped off when he bought that beanie. |

It's not a figure eight, its a double bowline with an overhand knot to get the
tail out of the way.
There are a lot of bolts, but he really wasn't that high off the ground!
Cheers,

@ Claire;
Fair enough about the knot. I stand corrected.
@ stugang re whole route;
I obviously live a sheltered existence and need to get out more!
