Finally, this gets a comment. I don't think it's independendent enough, from other lies, to justify being a line. It could maybe qualify as an alt start. I didn't have a copy of the 1985 guide to refer to. Grade-wise I thought I'd stayed low-enough. Once you leave Absent Friends there's no gear til your'e on top of the right hand nose and you only get there by a couple of dips. Alfie, you may be climbing better than you think.
