Cracking the 23 ceiling? 6-Jun-2007 At 12:39:52 PM prb

Hi gfdonc. If you don't need a big-name 23, there's that weird collection up King Rat Gully. Only Beside Myself is an attractive-looking climb. Even More Moves is pretty tough. The Other Route (23 in Louise's book/22 in Selected Climbs) is well protected and about 22 for the climbing, but maybe 40 to do the jump without weighting the rope. In fact, if you can do the jump free, you're in the wrong sport.

The crux of Luxury Item is probably 21/22 and well protected. Getting to it, particularly with respect to the flaky rock, is the issue. Some would be tempted to pre-place a high runner. Run it by your local ethics committee!
