[Jim Pope's first trad route, Nosferatu (E6 6b), 2 kb]12m. From the fallen block (that used to belong to Sorb) climb the right-hand arete with cunning (as usual that is toe and heel hooking) and using crimpy holds to a reach for a ledge. Finish up the arete or, more directly, via an extended but safe dyno. © ROCKFAX

With pads, quite high but feels like a very good font 6A+/6B on secure holds up to the gear. The dyno is actually quite strange, you are thankfully rewarded for your commitment

Fell off from about 4 meters first attempt. Don't know how i missed the boulder. Dyno at the top felt a bit scary without a rope!

Hidden - TR - 23/Apr/11

Couldn't make the crux move eventually frigged it and did the top half clean, including the fantsatic dynamic finish! Would eed to be a lot stronger before I even thought about getting on the lead.

quite committing stepping off the block but actually quite easy when you go for it, easier for the tall I think.
jacobjacob - Lead O/S - 20/Mar/11

Nick Sillem - 2011

Flashed after watching Eddie storm it. Hands were sooo cold - spent 10mins at the break trying to warm them but to no avail, had to rely on blind faith rather than sense of touch. Highlight was swimming through the snow to walk out at the end of the day.

Dan 85 - TR - 19/Mar/09 with Oli

What a route!!! Turned up intending to try and flash it but nice guy from down south was topping it so I thought I would have a play. After all this is a step up for me so thought this might be a blessing in disguise. I then felt all the moves and thought this is on! Did it twice on toprope to make sure then lead clean after about 15mins rest. Big respect to Ryan for belaying me and breaking off from his relaxing afternoon. Definatley a very do-able E6!

Great route. A couple of guys were out toproping and they gave me a spot at the start. Bottled out of the move from the breaks to the top of the crag given that I was soloing!
