The Odyssey Sit

CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

This is the sit start to the Odyssey. Do a large move first move from the jug at the bottom of the wall to gain the bottom of the flake with the right. From here you can climb in to the original Odyssey start for the crux move (originally done this way by Randy) or you can use holds on the arete for a milder version.

(Update : March 2021) This goes at a general consensus of lower end V12 , after the rail broke off in 2018. From the start jugs, match the crimps on the base of what remains of the rail, then go straight to the arete and back out left through the stand start.

Several variations to this problem exist including a variation and more direct start to The Odyssey Sit (see video below) however the holds are probably going break soon on this one. See video:
