Fine once you commit. So many logbook entries for this one but how many ascents!?
Souljah - Solo - 25/Feb/12 with Andi and Alistair

Pretty much spent at this point, possibly my favourite problem of the day, kept faffing about at the flake trying to reach up to the good bit :(

No pads for the full topout experience. Pretty much onsight but I did manage to downclimb the whole thing after getting beached doing the topout the wrong way. Did it next go.
