Ascent Note
On my first failed attempt of the thumb, my partner leading up the trough was looking very unhappy...... Finally, he said "SLACK" and started accross some scabby friction.....<p>
It wasn't until I followed him that I realized that he had nothing to protect the chimney, and was forced to climb to another route he could protect. <p>
With hindsight, I agree this is the best option. Squeeze chimneys are fine if you like offwidths and have big-bros.... but otherwise offwidths are like rotten gypsy armpits.
