| Didn't do a mantel, just careful foot work. Love the side pulls!
Note: this is another rope stretcher, a 60m does not make it to the ground. You can get safely off this route with a 60m but be careful! |

| Just climbed this weekend with a 60m rope. Had no trouble getting down at all, just take the last few steps easy. You can hold both ends of the rope and stand on the ground. A 70m rope would mean that you had 9.5m of rope on the ground doing nothing. This is a FUN line. Anchor placement is totally fine. |

| We did it on a 60m. If the leader cleans the draws, it's just long enough. A 70m is better though. |
