Can you tell us more about the trip and the two 9a ascents?
I'm in Flatanger trying Silence (9c) and I wanted to try something else, to train and to be away from the same moves for five days, so I chose 2 short projects. Illusionist cause is in the cave and it's the shortest hard route. And I tried Purgatory on the way to the cave and went back to send it few days ago
