Port A Doris - Paul Hutchinson sent the attached for clarification. The A white line is a variation of Novice outing, and B is the Crawler, I think. Anyone disagree?

Take note: The Crawler starts by the boulder/block left of start shown here...as per description under entry for The Crawler.

Route description should read, ahem, "nasty VDiff, awkward with poor gear" If I ever meet P. Grant, I'll give him a ruddy good punch on the bottom!

Lesson number 1: take Paddy Grant's grades with a big pinch of salt. They're notorious.

There is a left trending corner just right of Novice Outing(which meets ir at the top). It has never been logged as a separate route, but has been climbed by several people.
