pezzerrr - Lead O/S - 16/Apr/13

In weak evening sun, truly amazing route. First go today after failed OS attempt + another go last weak. Safe 7b = Middle of the road E5?
Richard Hall - Lead RP - 11/May/12 with Martin Crocker

Way easier with chalked up holds.

Hidden - TR dog - 28/Jun/11

Hidden - Lead O/S - 22/Jun/11

One distinct crux and some hard moves either side. Not so psyced to take a whipper on those pegs.
Jon_Warner - Lead dog - 14/May/11 with Alex Malins

Had a quick go on TR, fell a couple of times but did all the moves. Feels pretty fierce for E5 considering the protection...

I placed a cheeky thread from abseil. Said cheeky thread then broke in a bounce test (from ab). This makes it a bit more interesting now.
