In reply to sea_lene:
Years ago, I led Tophet Wall in the pouring rain.
The first two pitches were slimy, all the finger jugs on the traverse were full of water and a mini waterfall poured over the overhang above the last belay straight onto my belayer's head who was extremely unimpressed. Particularly as I then spent 45 minutes trying to climb the final pitch.
The hand jam crack was so wet and slimy that the jams wouldn't hold, my feet skidded around and I just couldn't commit. But retreating would have been far more faff, plus an abject failure on an old school route.
Eventually, I did the moves, teetered around the rib, somehow managed to stay on the rock to grab the jug and screamed so loudly, they head it in Wasdale Head.
The final moves felt nails in those conditions.
But it's was one of those amazing trad experiences.
