Palpable Tension

V5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

(aka Ken’s Super Slab) Climb up the slab using the sweet left facing corner. There are a couple of ways to start, but if you want to do it in the style of the first ascent: start right hand on the high sloping side pull, right foot in the obvious notch at the lip and left hand pressed on the slab.

Palpable Tension (Ken's Slab) - V5 - Calabogie Bouldering
Short person beta for Palpable Tension (Ken's Slab), located on the Nine-Tenths boulder. Stacking multiple pads is key to being able to pull on for short people. (It's easier layback the high hold on the right - the typical start, but then you need to stack even more pads!) Climber stats Height: 5'2" (157cm) Ape Index: +2"(5cm)
