well, i've only got four days of outdoor climbs to compare it to, so all suggestions welcome
It felt surprisingly exposed at the top, even though it was quite short and none of the moves were especially technical.
The ground below is also quite steep and rocky, so in case of a fall, even if you land without hurting yourself, you're going to take a further tumble.
In terms of other climbs on the Stanage crag, it was less scary than Right Twin Crack (

http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/c.php?i=10370 - NOT the direct route! ) but not much, due to lack of protection.
I know it's not exactly a great climb, but it's my first apparently-unrecorded one, on my first proper outside climbing trip, so I feel quite chuffed about it. I'm having the discussion about a name here :

My favourite suggestion so far is "Bob Hoskins" - because it's quite short but surprisingly hairy
