Committing last move, involving a precariously placed high left foot. Best trad lead to date and strangely enjoyable.

Beautiful climb on a perfect slab. Very run out but without an obvious crux move, so easy to keep going as long as you keep calm!

Seconded it first. Would be a bold onsight.

Exciting, but never terrifying. Balancy moves between good pockets. Ace.

brilliant! not as hard as the grip but it a real heart racer at the top. The moves felt more obvious but hard for 5b.

good fun. also climbed another E2 just right using a pocket as a side pull, felt abit harder than this one.
al123 - Solo O/S - 25/May/11

Not too difficult. Although I had a moment at the top when my right foot pinged from a pocket, leading to my right hand pinging from a sloper, leading to a right facing barn door off a left footed smearey left handed slopey crimpey thing... hang on a minute.

Good route. On the hardest moves, all the best footholds are in the wrong places and the hardest part was forcing myself to use the smears instead so I stayed in balance :oS Lots of gear faff. If you start up Tody's, the friend you want for the rockiover is the same one you want at the base of the final slab...

Belier - Lead β - 09/May/09 with Guy & Oli

Great route, disappointing to not span for the top, so some scrappy climbing leftwards helped me gain the top, scared Steve a bit. Very similar to motorcade in many respects.
