Non-Heelhook Attempt on Bearded Cabbage

Non-Heelhook Attempt on Bearded Cabbage

This was a very bad idea, when you don't have the reach. Right arm felt the pump real quick after letting go with the left to reach at the crack. Immediate hand traverse back to the right onto the rail again, for a heel-toe leg hook upsidedown hang rest. Did all possible to get this thing clean on the first go, but botched it at the end of the half hour struggle. Felt that long anyway. Came down. Went with a slightly different sequence and made good on the redpoint. A very patient belay by Armando. Photo by Steve. 1 Oct 2006
