New Route at the Outpost - One Hundred Zulu

Post by asc » Tue Jun 21, 2016 8:07 pm

One Hundred Zulu is a new sport climb just to the right of Western Harlot (WH). It is three pitches (5.9, 5.10a, 5.9) with a 5.3 link to the last pitch of WH if you want to go to the top of the formation.

You’ll need 14 draws and anchor material. Descend in three rappels with a single 60m rope.
While only a grade harder than the climb next to it, it is a big step up in terms of commitment. If the light is right, or the wind blowing, it can feel somewhat airy.

The climb is generously bolted and, like Western Harlot, we have put a couple bolts close together just above the crux so you can belay right there if you think the second will be challenged.

It’s hard to judge the grades on these things sometimes so let us know if they are in the ball park.
