Barely squeaked it out in light rain. Very fun, kinda sharp. With the approach and the conditions it seems pretty solid 8

I did the hike twice to get all four pads up here so Iā€™m taking the points šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«. Much less awkward than it initially looked. Found my own beta that nobody else seems to do bringing the RH in low and scooting the heel up, then clamping with the top of my left foot on the face, almost like a bike, before turning the arete. Really unique and made all the difference for me.
