That looks amazing. Good work.

You had a busy day Alan. Great weather although the Cauldron looks quite spectacular in rough seas as well.

Led this from the bottom on a calm day. This is a *** route on a par with Forked Lightening or anything else. Sustained grade and interest in the most dramatic of situations. First 5 m unprotected so suggest VS4b. If you are down at Malin on a calm day with the tide out, this is a 'Must Do'!!
