Second ascent.

When everything goes perfect! Last day before the rain and my flight back home. It was my 3rd day without rest, so the expectations were low. Barley crawled over the first crux, then somehow found a perfect flow. My body was getting extremely tired in 60 meters of overhang, but the wind was cooling me down. I used 16 pieces in 100 meters and it still felt super safe- just a bit of run outs at the top. Hats off to Pete for the vision and effort to make it possible to free!! Great place, hope to return again for more. [1]
