Well pleased with this one!!
Sardien - Lead O/S - 25/Jun/12 with Helena Robinson

Didn't find it too bad, great to see some improvement(Dunc said I cruised it :D). Sustained 5a with a 5b move around half way. Not quite an onsight because I did try it about a year and a half ago, but I couldn't remember anything of it this time, except for having backed off after a few meters. Satisfying to come back and make short work of it.

Sublimely Sustained E1 climbing, with a rest mid height. Brilliant
A Crook - Lead O/S - 17/Jun/12 with Dave Garry

Johns' epic lead of the trip. Bloody excellent route and definitely one to return and lead once comfortable at E1. Some excellent layback moves. Belay at the top is iffy given the dodgy crack in the boulder that widens when you add a cam.

Excellent. Annoyingly had a silly slippage off a slippy foothold due to lack of attention. Otherwise clean.

A sweet little route.....tricky for E1, but not too bad and bags of gear...take more than 5 cams. Brilliant jams, fingerlocks, ringlocks and laybacks with a few 'thank god' holds. Nice
