First ascent. With Crister Jansson.

Seeing Christer pass the crux was a great relief and filled me with happiness, I knew that the project was in the bag. During this process our efforts had grown together and we experienced a unity that I’ve previously only experienced on bigger routes in the mountains. Our progression had followed hand in hand all the way and was fueled by our friendship. Christer passed the anchor and linked in to a second pitch getting the most out of his run. An hour later I tied in again and started climbing, this time with no pressure or anxiety. I redpointed the splitter cracks, too. We dubbed the free route Ronny Medelsvensson, a name we feel is suitable for two middle aged fathers.
