Seconded to get to the top of the crag after failing on titanium man. Some great airy sequences on this.
Duncan Campbell - UKC - 2nd - 30/Apr/13 with Florence the Machine, Bubbles
Lead P2. Great technical moves to the arete and quite committing too. Glad you could back the peg up with a good wire. Brilliant route. Gets E1 5b in the book and it definately is.

I thought HVS 5b fair grade as most of climb is a lot easier and thin move left well protected by peg and wire (stay low, much harder if you traverse higher). It is committing heading to the arete though so I can see why people think E1. **

iceaxejuggler - AltLd rpt - 11/Jun/11 with Richard Haszko
Traversed high and discovered I could not reach (by about 3cm) to make the move, and took a 3m inverted lob - doh! Traversed low and made harder moves to gain arete from below the second time. Very good climb.
