4 out of 5 stars Outguard Spire

Did Escape from Poland on the Hulk the day before and we felt this route was quite a bit tougher. Of course a major part of that is the difference in rock quality. The first pitch has a spicy start and finish. The final layback is on micro gear in a chossy corner. The second pitch is the most straight forward of the first four. We went too high in the corner on the third pitch, the traverse is fairly immediate and hard, crux of the route for me. The fourth pitch is a micro gear sustained corner. The final pitch is quick and easy. We stayed roped up for the summit jaunt. Two raps with a 70m rope then another short rap to get down the gully.
