First ascent.

Second ascent.

I wouldn't call myself an offwidth climber but I just did the hardest offwidth in the creek.

The route is usually climbed inverted (i.e. feet first) but Mary opted to climb it straight on.

A remarkable effort given Alex's lack of experience in the style. By flashing the route Alex also managed to maintain his record of never having fallen of a trad route (up to this point). [2]
