Ascent Notes for: sideways - 5.11c Average Rating : 4.40/5

1 fall, then got it

this upper Finktion climb 3rd of 4 from the left, is in the group of three that starts on the lower slab,steep and vertical, the crux just above 4 th bolt , is the vertical edge that you need to grip sideways. three falls on lead there for me !
For my short stature, this always requires an extra move, I did get my right foot on the seam inches above the bolt , then flaged the left twice to gain a right hip in ,quick step to gain height and then dyno grab the top fin, quick traverse to 5th bolt. wow fun ,hard. So now I 've got all four in this group since 2006. chris

technical thin face with some very nice moves, made it harder than it was and went strait up the face for the crux made it feel 12ish I can see how if You went the right way unlike me it would have been easier. Cant believe i went that way lol.

i struggled to get a good hold for the crimp, but not being able to use the big foot to reach the crimpy sidepull meant that I had to hang and depumped. ;-(
I'll go back for the redpoint

fun 5.10 climbing leads to a brief 11hard crux then 5.9 climbing to the finish

hard crux, probably 11c, but very fun rock from start to finish.
