In reply to UKC News: I thought Woody had done a winter ascent of this about 6 years ago with the Boy Kells in tow ? Before Steve Ashworth was even born !!

That must be one hard (and rarely in condition??) climb to wait 25yrs for a repeat!

Great effort

In reply to 220bpm: last week stood looking at it thinking at grade 5 (guidebook) i might give it a shot as it looked okay didn't realise it hadn't been repeated ! i might have took a whooping that day !!

looks cracking lads well done

It feels like a long time since I bumped into Brian and Richard at the base of the crag, my partner having failed to hitch over from Leeds in time. He turned up about an hour too late and missed the first ascent of a classic outing.

Good effort Steve and Paddy.
