Led this route on Saturday, really nice climb. Still think its more VS than HVS territory though. Possibly worth a star, maybe even 2?

Don't jump on this if low on pump, and don't delay like I did, this route got in my head after a bit of r wedged beneath the overhanging corner moved and tried to kill me. I would have it at HVS 5a.

Good work, lads. Duly noted, keep the comments flowing.

If the protection is that good why not just give it a French grade? C'mon lads, that's not how it works. Otherwise all unprotected routes would be E10 and all the routes with loads of gear would be VD.

Seconded this on Sunday. A glorious line indeed, the crux move would have felt commiting enough on lead, i would have put the grade at VS 5a given the good protection.

yep it's a class line, but you can lace it up, and i think George is right, VS 5a, the protection at the crux moves are so good,

Good points, we need consensus.

A glorious route - more enjoyable going up it expecting 5b territory and HVS climbing... More like HS 4a/b. I placed 13 bomber bits of gear on this jugy wee thing (practiclly all wires!) Again, if you did Run of the Arrows after this, you would indeed get a shock!
