Looking for recommendations for Peak shunting venues and routes around E1 E2, 6b 6c.

Anywhere with nice straight rigging or bolts clippable from the top.

Work is busy and often last minute at the minute so I never know when i'm gonna get out until the day.

I know horseshoe is popular for this already.

Any tips welcome, cheers Karl

E12 6b/c is going to limit you a bit,

New Mills Torr is great for shunting. Long pumpy routes and super quick rigging from the big trees up top. It's slightly overhanging so you will swing out slightly falling off, but a cam anchor at head height easily negates this problem. Mather Crack is a great E2/5b and Bionics Wall is a pumpy but straightforward E4/5c. Enjoy!

Only place I've used mine is on the top-rope classics of Stoney: Wee Doris (about 6c) and Cabbage Crack (about 7a maybe). Both are convenient and good training.

How do you get to the top of mather crack for rigging it?

Walk round the side of the veggie cafe just before the bridge, then climb over the drystone wall above Mather. Step down carefully to the belay ledge, et voilá.
