Great route. Bit minging in places, unfortunately, but the necessary holds were clean, plenty of bomber gear and sustained interest without being too tough.

Grubby route but enjoyable in a kind of sick adventurous way. I took a while sussing out the chimney moves, which went fairly steady in the end

Dave Rumney - 2nd - 05/Jul/09 with Sean Roberts

This used to get E2!!! It was then my finest onsight and I gave it 2,5 stars, mainly because I got up it. It is a bit of a sandy grovel really. Shame about the downgrade - it's true though I guess.
