Abbed down to do this but did the final pitch of concrete chimney as jon had a horrific time due to wind. The wind was incredibly strong.
Lots of lessons to learn from this, I'll be back when it's stiller and therefore awesome and not scary. Scary experience for Jon.
Wanted to get out as quick as possible after P1.

Lead P2. Both pitches are brilliant. The first is a tough warm up, very sustained. The second becomes obvious as you leave the belay, lots of hard to see holds from below and great moves over the overlap.

Immaculate climb made all the more nervy by the useless topo in the first edition N Wales rock guidebook from Ground Up (subsequently corrected in their Gogarth North guide). I followed the hard to interpret written description for the final pitch which I think proved correct. It took me way out right to a prominent layback crack and then followed a right to left diagonal line through the overlap to safety. Brilliant climbing in an amazing position.

Very cool climb, bottom pitch probably a tad harder with more good gear and pitch 2 (my lead) probably a touch easier but a little more runout. All in all, absoulotely lovely climbing in a nice position that is never to dangerous!
