got a bit lost, and had to traverse back to get gear just above the crux
laurence_falconer - 20/Mar/13 with Chris Stafford
really good, unpolished climbing on the second and third pitch. i thought the second pitch was hard for HS and very hard for 4a. possibly no single move deserves 4b, but the climbing is quite constant. very reasonable gear if you have some small wires.

Warm up of the day, bold but not in a bad way, meant you could just get on with the climbing. :) solo 1, Monkey 2, Me lead 3

Nice climbing. Quite a bold tricky section on pitch 2. Only the vaguest hint of the polish mentioned in the guide - I can only think the author is confused with another route.
Monk - AltLd O/S - 23/Jun/12 with Luke Vincent
Didn't bother to faff with gear on pitch 1, just scrambled up. Led pitch 1 after a wobble and disco legs 2 metres up it got slightly easier but run out in places.

Greg M - AltLd - 12/Apr/12 with Paul Watson
Did in 2 pitches via Piton Route stance 2 somehow. I bottled out of leading the top of PR (too early in season!) and traversed left back onto the route. A great outing! It was raining all around us but not in the gorge until we finished :)
PaulWatson - AltLd rpt - 12/Apr/12 with Greg
Started higher than the guidebook said, so did it in 2 pitches. Jamie led the 1st half, I led the 2nd. Gear quite sparse in places but a nice climb. Hardly any polish.

JamesRich - 2nd O/S - 09/Aug/11 with Jack Bradbrook
Did it in 3 pitches all of which I led as James wasn't so keen due to the routes reputation for being bold and having dubious belays. Nice climbing but recommend acquiring some Avon gore style route finding and belay building skills before doing it.

Led p2. Nice route with a veriety of moderate challenges. Loads of loose rock on this route as well, large block overhanging first stance cracked all the way round!

1st pitch scrambled to ledge below official start of 2nd pitch, 2nd Pitch (Dan) nice grippy rock with a couple of tricky moves. Crux is traverse after the spike. Comms very difficult due to road noise. 3rd Pitch (Me) technically easier but rock not as sticky and a bit polished in places. Nice climb, but can someone please take a pair of secateurs up to deal with that fiesty little Hawthorn bush on the 2nd pitch

Well protected climb from start to finish. I led first pitch, Myles led the second. Need to protect the traverse at the end of pitch 2.

On bringing up the second rope we found that Nick hadn't tied on, so I down-climbed the first pitch with both ropes, re-clipping the gear and then re-ascended followed by Nick.
