Flicka - AltLd O/S - 03/May/09 with Colin (Victim of Mathematics) and Ninja Dan

Still gets VS with a comment about being serious in the new guide. Actually neither VS nor at all bold.

Hidden - 2006

I led pitch 1, Carmen led a variation of pitch 2, taking the arete on the left at the top. We might have done this route the last time we climbed here as the start seemed familiar, but I've got no record of what routes we did then!
