In reply to timmyhobby:

longest is a little strange for a cliff, do you mean highest or widest ? another contender must be Ysgolion Duon

In reply to Doug:

i mean is it the longest climb, if you want to be picky is it the tallest?

In reply to timmyhobby:

It is not "picky" to ask up or across. If you allow across the longest route will be one of the girdles. It you don't it will be a much shorter up route.

In reply to timmyhobby:


If you want to be picky, we'd normally say highest.

In reply to timmyhobby:

What they are trying to say is; yes!

In reply to jon:


Is the mightiest though?

In reply to timmyhobby:


Even more picky. Is lliwedd a climb?

In reply to Dave Garnett:

cheers

In reply to timmyhobby:

longest climb might not be on the highest cliff

In reply to Doug:
Strange how we use the different adjectives - highest cliff, longest route. If we swap them over the meaning subtly changes. Longest cliff could/would probably mean measured horizontally as you suggested above. Highest route could easily refer to a short pitch at a very high altitude.

In reply to Doug:

My longest climb was conclusion on shepherds- took about three years ... Boom boom I'll get me coat.
