UKC

Restricted Access

Ramshaw is home to some of the hardest routes in Britain and most of them are graded HVS - a Yosemite style tape job is the only access requirement! There are no access problems at the main crag. However, do not try and climb at Lady Rock (the buttresses on the far right above the farm house), these are not on access land, the owner lives very close and has been confrontational.

UKC Logbook Description
A cheeky little gem. At the right end of Smoothment Traverse is a low overhang. Pinch the lip of this (underneath the slot) with left, and right hand on the vague smeary rail right of the arĂȘte. From here, right foot on a ledge, under overhang. Quickly get a left heel on, press on this and catch the small slot slightly higher, then press harder and snatch a sidepull at the end of Smoothment Traverse, then for top flakes as for Sketching Wildly. Slightly easier to get a heel with right on smeary rail after sidepull move.

FA. Pete & Dom Bridgwood Apr/2011.
