I guided the Fang and Fist in the Ghost Yesterday (Feb 12) with two guests.
Overall the route is still in great shape except the pillar on the 1st pitch I
found quite thin compare to 2 years ago when I climbed it. Due to the nature
of the pillar(aerated) there is next to no gear for the first 10 to 15 meters.
However the hook placements were solid and lots of excellent features to stand
on. It is definitely a cerebral pitch for leading.
