Great route - remember to look at the exposure on pitch 7 as you pull through the final roof..
Lawrie Brand - AltLd O/S - 06/Jun/13 with Tim Hamlet
great route, started raining on p5 so had to wait a while for it to stop and dry off, but the overhang section was largely protected from the wet, p7 was not!

Slightly wet in various places along the route, but still quite enjoyable. Found the detached flake a very worrying hold to pull on, but maybe that's just me being overly nervous.
