A fun route for sure but make sure your head is screwed on right before hopping on it.
Also, Magda and I replaced the super old tat that was on this route with maillons and rings. Were these tats from the 1991 FA?

Chernobyl

I climbed this route for the first time yesterday. Wow, this is a great stemming challenge on dubious pro. A nail biter for sure! Thankfully, the sketchy traverse crux is bolt protected. Why sketchy you ask? Because you have to spread eagle your legs with your right foot on mossy smears and your left foot on this loose tooth that sticks out of the wall. The tooth is wobbling but I've been told that it's solid. It didn't break on me so this seems to be true.
