βeta: There's an extra crux for proper short arses (sub 5'4 climbers?) to reach the main pebble. If you don't have any bend in your right arm on the arete to pull over to the pebble, the only way I could just about keep tension, was by squeezing a 2mm crystal with my thumb and a pebble scar with my index finger on the arete. It feels harder than f7a with little arms, but the grade is irrelevant, beautiful climbing! | ||
