The Thin Black Line – 5.12b


FA: Daren - 2025-10-18

Description:

Techy climbing on immaculate rock. An initial boulder problem leads to tiny but super crispy edges, and a final super balancy transverse before the grade eases. Somewhat diminished in quality by the fact that it’s possible to traverse either left or right into the vertical crack systems of the neighbouring routes, but this would drop the grade.

    Crisp conditions combined with finally abandoning some bad beta at the start for the send. Very unsure on the grade. It’s my anti style, and I think both the first and last crux will be much easier for tall people.
