Warm up. Kind of eliminate as a lot of holds were wet. A touch run out in places but good gear when you get it. Belayed at bolts and scrambled off.

Surprisingly good climbing compared to what I was expecting. Solid gear if a little spaced and a reachy crux move.
Quarryboy - Lead O/S - 03/Jul/11 with Rob Stanfield
Typical; hmm it's getting dark. Time for one more? - route! Dispatched without drama.
Only the start warrants the grade with the rest of the climbing easier and better protected.
