Berowra

Ladder of Gloom 10m 19 (RP)
Dafd sweating it out. The direct start dyno is from the well chalked hold about 4 feet below him, up and R-ish to the protruding nose.

Me pulling the final move to the anchor. The route really kicks over steeply towards the top.

** Ladder of Gloom Direct Start 10m 22 (RP)
Hows that for a dyno?? Full stretch to L hand on jug, both feet are 6 inches above where they started! And I stuck it!! And redpointed it!! (Hey, I never said this page wasn't a gratuitous self promotion!!)

* Wall Thing 12m 19
Me pulling the crux on one of my first ever leads. Gotta love the tape harness, borrowed shoes, and dynamic rope so old it's almost static . . . .
