A Fortuitous Encounter With Fate – V8

Description:

FA by Tristoon Salson in 2021. From Mountain Project: Take the blue line trail, the trail goes up , then down, continue 100m after it goes up, the boulder is 20meters off the trail to the right as you go up, hidden in a creek. There used to be logs to prevent pads from getting soaked.

    Six or so rushed tries in 12 mins. Morpho, easier if youre taller. Beautiful boulder. Incredible back and forth, heel hook, toe hook, heel hook, back forth, back forth compression. Came very early before work and was rushed for time because I got lost. It was hard to find but eventually it became clear once the sun came up. So glad I made the drive out here. Definitely worth it. FYI: there are some dead branches from a fallen tree touching the boulder a little on each side of the arete. Would recommend bringing a handsaw to cut those for a more enjoyable experience
