Description

My favourite climb of the day - the sun had dried the rock and it was just beautiful and fun!
The second bolt position is a little concerning - with the rope direction / pull, it really put the quickdraw under a bad stress against the rock - this is evidently common as the edge of rock is shiny / worn wear this has happened before.
I plan to climb this again sometime and will try a longer quickdraw to keep the carabiner away from the rock edge.
