Pursuit of Excellence (7b+)

Evening all,

Can anyone comment on whether people usually clip the 3rd bolt at the undercuts and then head left, running it out to the bolt below the bulge or clip the 4th bolt at block and then left?

The length between the 3rd and potentially 4th (the one below the bulge) is pretty intimidating. Any thoughts? Be brave?

Many thanks in advance, Emilio.

Putting a long sling on the bolt above the lower crux (I think you describe as the one at the block where Hardcore Ecstasy goes up) before heading left helps a lot and does not incur too much drag - it also helps to put a longer draw in the next bolt of PoE.

Many thanks, the line in The Northern Limestone guide probably added a bit to the confusion. It sounds like it climbs a little more up and then left rather than left and up.

Yes, you've got it.
