Nice moves just a shame its so short. HORRIBLE top out!
odox - Lead O/S - 12/May/10 with Rob Clark

Block is definitely mobile and was also the last runner:( Topout is terrifying because the climb doesn’t really end, the rock just turns into soil!

Got to the overhang and got too pumped, looked fine from the ground (as they all do in my head), will have another go when I'm more fresh.

n.b. 30.6.09 the block in the overhang is DEFINITELY LOOSE, and very mobile. APPROACH WITH EXTREME CAUTION. I don't plan to climb this again until it goes.
