hardest hvs ive ever tried
Tom Doldon - Lead dnf - 24/May/12 with sam simpson 48

thought this was going to be a real struggle but turned out to be mostly very pleasant bridging with one slightly tougher move to exit the crack

..well almost..rested on rope at top of crack.

Good tough HVS crack climbing. Starting the final traverse gives a bit of a sting in the tail too.
Si dH - Lead O/S - 16/Oct/10 with Neil Furniss

Fell at the break in the crack on the central section.

brilliant bridging moves followed by some tough jamming to reach the ledge (got to be 5b!), brutal but essential Stanage tick and hard at HVS!
Graeme Hammond - Lead O/S - 02/Aug/10 with andrea83

Absolute hell. Couldn't finish. A mans route for sure. Note to self never try again!

Wouldn't usually log dnf, but got all the way up the jamming crack, but couldn't make the rightwards move onto the face due to the gale that was coming from the other side!!
