Climbing Jacob’s Ladder at Table Mountain (Cape Town, South Africa)

Chris Anthonissen and I climb Jacob's Ladder, which goes at 5.8. Chris led the first pitch, I do the second, and he finished the last short one. I am a relative beginner with trad climbing, so bear with me and my placements. In this video I show the hike up, India Venster, and the full climb. Hopefully this gives you an idea of the approach, the climb itself, and is also a bit entertaining as well.

I think I could have definitely used at least one blue 3.
