Very hard. I thought the 4c pitch was 5a. The roof was fine, but the final corner was nails. Had to pull on gear up it.

Final corner was made even more horrible by strong wind, was not in love with climbing after that pitch!!!

How can move to belay on p3 only be 4c, and the next two be 5a? poss 5b? excellent route though after a shabby start.
Little B - AltLd O/S - 23/May/10 with Simon

A good route but not continuous. No where near 5b! And the step left to the belay on P3 was at least 4c+!
