Absolutely! When I did it earlier this year it was in pretty poor shape with a lot of moss, dirt and seepage. My partner and I cleaned it as we went and removed a great deal of dirt from the bottom three pitches. We loved every minute of it.
The E2 in the corner just right of BP is due a clean. We wanted to climb it that day but we were put off by the moss and water. I was planning to do it last month but just haven't got there yet. I'll clean it this month if I have time.
Well recommended to anyone wanting to give it a go - BP needs more traffic.
