Brilliant, the best of its type that I've done. Sustained, exhausting squirming of the tightest kind. Variations are possible depending on how deep into the crag you want to go.

Perfect example of why I don't like VDiffs! No good gear until a very long way up. Some good climbing though. Maybe I missed all the fun by not getting right in to the chimney proper?

My belayer got scared about the lack of gear, 1 move later I got scared about the lack of gear. Downclimbed. Maybe it's ok if you're thin and can squirm up the inside of the chimney, otherwise the outside is unprotected to about 10m.

None of us able to lead due to extreme lack of protection (ie none). Dapper led furthest but had to have a top rope dropped in order to finish. Dav and I followed on the top rope
