| I had successfully climbed the entirety of the route 2 years earlier. The first time I led it I had combined pitches 1 and 2 and that seemed to work pretty well, although the sloping belay ledge made me think I had stopped too soon. This last time I led it with a 60m rope I ended up combining, according to this page, pitches 1,2, and 3 into a single pitch. I would not recommend it. I was very tired, and I was very short on gear. Also, I did that part about stepping left to avoid the roof because I didn't have enough big pieces, and yeah, it was hard to protect to the point of not having any pro. A classic full-value climb. | |

| Bastille was one of my first leads. I've climbed with with my wife over the years on at least 4 occasions. Remarkably I have never been on the route when others were climbing. | |

| Awesome route! You can combine several pitches to make this go faster. Be solid with gear and trad climbing at the 5.7+ Eldo level! Enjoy! Dan | |
