Cable anchors suck, this pitch doesn't suck.

Cable anchor, June 2022 - the cable has been covered with webbing and additional webbing loops added. Note the blue aramid sling is not part of fixed anchor.

The 5.8 OW . . . got a #3 Big-Bro in at the start but still walked a new C4 #5 two times and then got a #4 in.
1/3 up the 2nd pitch, this part was a lot of fun 5.7ish. The OW is still out of sight about 30ft up.
Start of the 2nd pitch.
