Ok I was tired, alright! No seriously this is what the on-line guidebook is for, thanks for the comments. |

Good route, nice sustained climbing again on good edges and side-pulls. Good gear in the middle of the wall, E1 5b felt about right. Great routes on this wall, very slate like in character, good for a pump in the leg department. |

forgot to add E1 as there is some good gear low down and just before the easy top out |

I re-climbed this 07/08/06 with Neil Machon, who felt the grade to be more E1 than E2; with the 5b section being mostly before what I felt was the crux. Starts the consensus going. I also did a slightly different sequence at the crux too. |
