Cat's Tail – 5.9 (trad)

Description:

The CLASSIC!
Make hard moves up the thin crack dihedral, place gear in the holds you don't need. Make a smeary step right to a jug and cruise the amazing hand crack through bulges and overhanging flakes to the top anchors.
The original route exited left into the gully below the roofs.

FA: Michael Rosenberger, Helmut Microys (1963/1964)
FFA: Chas Yonge (late 1970s)

    First time going for the onsight of a 5.9 trad climb. Great climb, great gear. Crux is well protected and interesting moves.
