Title: [My Kai][E8 6c][Shining Cliff]
Post by: Tommy on January 29, 2013, 10:56:52 pm

Climbs the project mentioned in the BMC guide of doing the direct start to Geckoblaster at Shining Cliff. Having done Gecko' I thought doing the direct would be easy..... but no it was a bit of an epic care of Bonjoy's cheeky Moo Cow problem.

Basically good beefy wall climbing, with lots of nice powerful moves on crimps. There's one RP2 at the top or apparently Jon said there's a ballnut under the roof. I'll get a vid & pics up soon.

Fine effort Tom. It’s a quality piece of climbing and often dry when nearly everything else is wet.
It was a ballnut one midway along the main overlap.
Looking forward to seeing the pics & vid.
