quite good with lots of gear, just a little runout on the last steep bit. a good way of doing the top part is placing a high runner in the cracked borehole, step back, climb up 2 meters on the right past the peg without clipping and hand-traverse back left to the top of the cracked borehole, then go up. sensible belaying might keep you from hitting the ledge in case of a fall... I'll try to go up directly next time, but that didn't seem easy.

Soloed the right arete, avoiding the groove. Finally commited to the last move..

Nice, can't find the peg mentioned in the guidebook though. After I climbed through the buldges I went directly up the crackline which is a little tricky.
Stanley - Lead O/S - 15/Sep/11 with Bethia Manson
First 2/3rds very enjoyable.
May have been on the 5c variant. Got dark, had a head torch but couldn't do the move so backed off to prevent ledge-induced pain. Will re-visit.

vs soft 4c, polish made small footholds at the top quite troublesome. Fun little route.

Still feels hard for VS! The hand traverse across to the jug is made tricky because the hand holds are dusty, and the peg isn't going to stop you from hitting the big ledge if you slip.

First VS - found it quite hard! Brought Harry up to ledge because rope drag was too bad to carry on (climbing on a single). Then had another go at last section but got pretty pumped from all the hanging around and let Harry finish it!

Have done this many, many times. I love it. Guidebook says go left at the top, but that misses out the best bit! I recommend, go straight up the borehole from the ledge and reach for the massive jug just to the right of the ivy. A couple of wires (2/3) will protect a broken neck ;-)
ruaidh - Lead β - 04/Aug/09 with Ben
Slippery at bottom. Top ledge a bit hairy, but rewarding.
dereke12000 - TR O/S - 26/Jul/09 with Aiden & Matt
harder than expected, fairly straightforward at the bottom - enjoyable, then more challenging at the top - steep, and exciting!
richardadventurecafe - Lead - 26/Jul/09 with Neil Sperrings
First visit to Avon gorge, polished start but rewardingly tough, ab'ed off for top rope setup for jasper. Fair protection and polished rock (infamous for the area).

From ledge go up high enough to clip peg, traverse direct left on reasonable holds to large obvious jug, head up from there! 4b move
jh5638 - Lead O/S - 20/Sep/08 with Mirella Masiello
Thanks to Alistair for getting us both up this after previous flunk. Loss of peg and polish on crucial holds on headwall makes this probably a 4c HVS
PaulWatson - 2nd - 02/Sep/08 with Alistair, Dan
Went off to the right at 5C instead of going up the groove at 4C. Fell. Got rescued by some very nice men. Note to self: read the route before you go and don't just look at the pictures!

Monk - Lead O/S - 26/Apr/08 with Mullermn
Cheated slightly before pulling onto ledge by grabbing the fixed gear to get back down to the ledge below (having pumped my arms out hanging around trying to figure out the move).
Eventually did the move cleanly - but in no style! Ended up in a crawling position on the ledge! Still, made it up in the end.

Much more rewarding than Idleburger Buttress or Syph; despite the polish there are some good moves to be made and the rock still provides holds that work. The crux is near the top, an exercise in balance and small, progressive movements to gain a ledge.

Excellent and enjoyable lead through to above the overhang (5m from the top!) stalled at the ledge bellow the pegs, not sure about the route at this point, following the guide has got to be way above VS 4b. Maybe going just right of the cracked bore hole with the peg is the answer. Andy lead through and after a struggle topped out. I dogged the remainder of the route - very frustrating.
