Ascent Notes for: Polly Vicini - 5.6 Average Rating : 3.50/5

Onsight winter ascent. nice!

Rather enjoyed this climb, nice feet, a lot of good places to use hand and fist jams. You can definitely be creative on this climb.

Would agree with most, felt a little stiff for the grade. Great fun though, I'd highly recommend it!

Granted, I'm new to trad, and roofs give me the shakes, but the crux seemed pretty strenuous for 5.6. Great hands and marginal feet in the true Ontario style.

Ok route.

The large chockstone mid-way up is where the business is found. The crux takes some committment since its overhung with not-so-great feet. To me, this route seems more strenuous to climb then Camel (5.7) and Wideload (5.9). Takes great pro, but, there is some brittle rock near the top.

Felt alot harder than 5.6 - but I think we went off route. We traversed left onto the ledge and up the chimney. Oh ya, and we don't have cams or hexes so it is possible to protect it with nuts and tri cams!
