ACCESS SENSITIVE
Sandstone in the Nanaimo area becomes extremely compromised when wet and you will break holds that may not have broken if you had waited for them to dry out. DO NOT CLIMB WET SANDSTONE ON VANCOUVER ISLAND!
Start matched on the low crimp. Work up into the undercling and then the slopey lip to hit the finish seam and mantle up.

2025-05-25 Managed to send in one session! Needed to try hard to get the mantle done. Didn’t cut feet going to the lip or to latch the finish jug. Sick lowball!

Topping this out sure hurt. Super fun climb. The jump to the lip never gets old. Re-Sent 2026-01-18: Took a few tries to remember everything. Still just as sick as I remember. Still easier than any 9s I've done.
