Post by: SA Chris on February 06, 2012, 11:50:40 am: I'm always intrigued about new stuff getting done there. Is this an existing project, or something he spotted and gave a scrubdown himself?

Looks like a great line!

The later I expect, from Nalle's 27crags logbook (http://27crags.com/climbers/hukknal/ascents)

First ascent. Cleaned this thing just a few days ago. I can't believe there are still amazing lines like this one to be climbed in Font! The Chironico-Font combo; a Perfect mix of Font sloper hugging and Swiss style crimping!

whoose eyes are you looking through to see that rodma?

funny you asking where it was, someone asked me yesterday after seeing it on 27crags. when i replied where it was they said i might have known you'd know. to wit i replied yes the bit at the bottom where it tells you the location gave it away.

looks good, there's tons more stuff like this to do
