Essential Gear

Medium to large friends nuts and hexes. Remember the small tricams for those horizontals. 60 meter rope should work at least if you rappel of the other side farther north. Be careful if you decide to rappel a giant overhang. Helmets are good on rappel. On this rock someone slipped on rappel and was sliding down fast, did arrest and swung into the ceiling on the rebound. Helmet would have mitigated this event.
