Rónán, the crux is definitely the lighting your pipe in a good westerly, whilst your sherpa carries a Connemara pony (the expedition mascot).

Done in tweed on 7/6/12 in the rain with a hemp rope found on the beach, in what was clearly the contemporary style of the first ascentionists of many routes of this nature. A very futuristic line. The length of the rope necessitated two stances to be taken, below the crux and the final intimidating headwall. Very much in the modern style.

Not that is really matters but in comparison to Pride of Gola, many a green leader would be lead astray by judging their leading abilities this route/stair case.
