An incredible solo ascent for it's time. The same year Peter also soloed Astroman and The Rostrum in the same day. |

1988 | The Shadow | E7 | Lead | onsight | 1988 |
First ascent.
Peter onsighted the crux pitch, though having done pitches nearby previously there is some discussion about how onsight it was [1]. On balance, it seems likely that he had little to no knowledge of the pitch before setting off.
