[Anglezarke Bolts, 2 kb]20m. Somewhat bizarre and devious in line, but good, satisfying climbing never-the-less. Mantelshelf onto a narrow ledge then trend left, passing the overlap almost to the corner before heading up to another ledge. Swing back right to access the notch at the top of the wall and finish through this with care. © ROCKFAX

We both had a crack at the lead and got sandbagged at the mantle move. Ken finally found a way through on his 3rd go. I managed to second by placing a very high foot and pulling through the slopers. Not a 5a move! Super climb though.
