Have wanted to do this since seeing a photo of it twenty years ago...but a little bit of a disappointment to be honest, maybe i'd built it up in my mind to much. Right Angle/Central Groove/Pegasus all far better South West HS's. Climbing a little bold and don't go to high when traversing....

Me P3, Kylie P1,2,4&5. Brilliant and unique route. Took the route up the white scoop for P3 rather than the easier variation to the right and found it unexpectedly scary for HS4a due to shinier texture rock and fewer gear options!
mullermn - AltLd O/S - 02/Aug/11 with Kylie Richards

Good climb. I lead first, running pitches 1 and 2 together, Andy lead pitch 3 then I ran pitches 3 and 4 together. Really enjoyed the traverse and the slab moves on the top of pitch 2. Very nice!

Led pitch from the Ab block and then the traverse. Enjoyed the traverse immensely which I wsn't expecting to (and got more gear in than I was expecting). Just don't look down! Final move down of the traverse, after taking out the last piece of protection, is worse for seconds than leads, a fall would not be pretty.
Bobling - AltLd - 27/Sep/10 with Rich Fox, Sharon

I did first pitch to abseil point halfway up. We then waited while a couple of lovely ladies from London inserted themselves into our climb by bribing me with a choc bar. They'd earlier retrieved my cam dropped on Albion so v grateful. Alan completed the next pitch to a small ledge threequaters of the way up the slide. I did the next pitch including the delicate traverse and Alan led the last little bit feeling really glad to be past the traverse.
risby - AltLd O/S - 27/Sep/10 with Alan Blanchflower

simonward - Lead O/S - 29/Jul/10

brilliant route, loved the final traverse with 400 feet of blank slab below. Ellie almost got washed off the ledge at the bottom of the route...i ran up the first pitch and set up a belay ASAP, after she had done about 3 moves, a massive wave came in an covered the ledge in a couple of feet of water, soaking her in spray in the process.
Dan Lane - Lead O/S - 25/Jul/10 with Ellie boylan

Basically as good as people say it is. Got a bit too close for comfort with the sea at the bottom. Tide was coming in and got soaked just as I set off on the first pitch. Should have lead the first 2 pitches cos they were easy, last pitch was quite scary on second as a fall would have resulted in a big swing and a fair amount of pain...
elephant0907 - 2nd - 25/Jul/10 with Dan Lane

I lead out to a dodgy hanging belay, Chris took pitch to below Fear & final pitches. Almost worth the ferry ticket alone.

Lead pitches 1 & 2 togather. Nick lead pitch 3. Lead pitch 4 and 5 togather. The traverse was very precarious if done properly ie go right up to the head wall then traverse left. One move descends slightly and feels easyly 4b, is also runout, HS?. Most other parties seemed to cut accross before the headwall which is easier.

A bit over-rated, but doing the middle pitch in the rain may have contributed to this. Have to go back and do it in the sun!

Nick Smith - UKC - AltLd O/S - 06/Nov/04 with Bunny

Made a mad dash to climb this before the ferry back to the mainland. Made it to the half way break in one pitch, and tried to get to the top on the second. Ran out of rope which resulted in some dodgy simul climbing with little in the way of pro between us. Ended up being one of the most memorable leads of the week!
