Jane (5.11a trad) in Crow Hill. Send Go!

After about 5 or 6 (I lost count) tries across 4 sessions in Crow Hill, MA, I finally sent Jane. I even took a day off on purpose to work on it this Tuesday.
This is by far my hardest trad route and in particular the only one on which I fell on gear (multiple times as seen in a previous video). Here I have detailed the first part including the gear as the second half is much easier.
I think that despite Mountain Project rating of 5.11a this is harder since the choke stone at the crux fell out (after the grade was established).
Anyway I will now move to a different project.

Jane 5.11a trad. Send go. Summary

Просмотров 142 часа назад

Finally sent it. I think it took three tries including two this session since at first I fell when placing the blue cam. After sending the crux (once on the ledge) I was so afraid I’d mess it up and fall during the 5.8 lumpy section

progress since last time. And I now have the gear beta figured out as well as the top half of the crux. Now I need to execute better the bottom part.

New yellow climb to the right of the lead wall. Couple of nice knee bars. The top after the second one is a bit tricky. My first beta was to go foot first and place a left knee bar but getting out of it by turning it into a drop knee put enough torque on my knee to injure it so now I am using the right knee bar less good but less flexibility needed to exit it.

Whitehorse Ledge Atlantis pitch 4

one of the classic climbs in Whitehorse Ledge in North Conway. This is my second multi pitch trad climb so I am concentrating on showing the placement as this is something I can definitely improve. 1:20 - start of the pitch. Right facing corner with weird rock on the left 6:59 - a roof traverse pretty epic. Great exposure very few and small feet. 14:45 - finger crack. Last technical section 17:...

Today on Crow Hill in Massachusetts I had my first fall on trad gear I placed. A totem cam in this case. This is two of those falls. Note that I did finish the climb off video but I had to aid to put the gear in the crux so I'll attempt it again later.

New climb from this Friday. Nobody else rated it yet when I climbed it. I think it will go for 5.12 if the setters don't change it but as I had to try 4 times before my send, maybe 5.12 Unfortunately not leadable but nice with several traverses. The orange climb is a bit in the way

Finally sent this climb several months after it was put up. At the beginning the comp team practiced on it a bit but since then I never see anybody on it.
