Nice move reattaching the Velcro on your shoe after putting in the third piece!

Adds a grade if the shoe comes undone!

I think Steve Bancroft may have used a helmet on his 1st ascent in 1976, but then he had something worthwhile to protect!

This might be the perfect trad send! Big, ballsy, great gear and a cool head! LOVED IT!

millstone is the place to be for trad in the peak!

A very enjoyable video. Sounded like you worked hard and was rewarded for your effort. Well done

This is what I call great climbing. All trad, similar to climbing in the 70ies and 80ies in Western Canada.

Nicely climbed! And great video 👍

Jolly good chaps,well done.

Not sure why I got this recommended, but awesome sends! So interesting to see the different feel of a ground up vs a headpoint climb.

Nice one - such a battle getting the gear in those horrid cracks under the overlap.

Yeah the gear there is actually quite bad too, feels kinda scary untill the piton after the overlap

I’m sure it was E4 6b in the guide that I had!

If possible. If there is only a directional nut placement I’d certainly take that until I can place something multi directional. Or would you advocate soloing if there are no multi directional placements?

Sorry mate what's the hardest you've climbed? e3?

You need to get to get better with your feet. You're constantly scrabbling around missing the optimum footholds. Climbing is 80% feet - you're relying on arm and finger strength too much
