Description
This is the amazing right side of the Ecstasy Arete. Arguably the most striking overhanging pure arete route on earth! Sharma wondered about this line for years, until finally scoping it on a brief Bishop visit in the fall of 2023. After top-roping it on day one to suss the moves, he bolted all 18 bolts in a mad 45 minute frenzy. The next morning he sent in a steady drizzle, all the handholds on the arete were damp. Unbelievable! He then flew that day back to Spain. As of 2024 it had seen no known repeats.
