** Charity 20m 14
Peter cruising up the easy slabby section.
The Savage Amusement Buttress
The first 25 in New England heads up this face.
** Inertia 10m 22
Trying to gain the exit crack.
* Heavy Metal 12m 19
A nice tricky slab climb - the first bolts ever in New England.
* Illusion 10m 13
Peter posing. This is a lovely little corner, with an interesting "two-way" crack making for hard-to-see pro. There's convenient rap chains at the top.
* Layabout 15m 17
Me at the top after my onsight. The best bit is the thin crack at the bottom, but lack of photographic skills (we won't say who by, will we Peter?) means it got half cut out! I'd highly recommend stepping R after the nice crack to the arete, "Going Steady", which makes for a 2 star classic!
