Hidden - Lead O/S - 19/May/13

Looked grotty to lead, unclear route description in our book. Loose ańd veggy at top but surprising nice to second!

AMI workshop with Steve Long, Teaching Lead Climbing, Also did combo of first pitch of One Step in the Clouds and Helle Babe. All climbs like waterfalls,done in two waterproofs and still soaked. Graet lead on Borneo by Bruno.
Simon Cahill - 2nd - 15/Jun/12 with Bruno

Sophie Nunn - 2nd O/S - 06/Jun/12 with Pete S, Ceridwen Hutchinson

I thought the last bit very bold for VS, and quite loose/dirty/vegetated, might clean up with a bit of traffic.

abbotsmike - AltLd O/S - 27/May/11 with Keith peck

I pitched this to aviod rope drag. Had started the 2nd pitch and was finding the V groove harder than expected when a guy on Rio shouted over to stay out the groove and move up the flake. The Beta was most welcome :) Really good route this! Great friction.

dan-8990 - AltLd O/S - 28/Nov/10 with AO

PYB (Mike Raine) - very nice, i think the gear would have just about stayed in...a sling on a flat topped block held in by a RP2 pulling sideways in a horizontal break. Top grove is pretty good too.
Dan Lane - Lead O/S - 14/Aug/10 with Mike Raine, Ben Tibbets

A good climb now it's clean. Probably best enjoyed in two pitches, as we did. Led P2.
Andy Clarke - AltLd O/S - 13/Aug/10 with Alex

Harri777 - 2nd - 02/May/10 with George W, Naomi

Nice airy technical moves on upper slab. Skipped chimney as vegetation and slime.
NB Pixel - AltLd O/S - 02/May/10 with George O, Harri!

Hidden - Lead O/S - 16/Apr/10

Despite the guide book description, this climb was worth doing and not too vegetated. Delicate climbing up some sparsely protected slabs leads you to the final V-chimney; which has some superb well protected moves to gain the top
craig h - AltLd O/S - 11/Apr/10 with Janet Hannah

Into to multi-pitch for Bridgette and Hannah. Route still needs more traffic!
Ken Applegate - Lead - 10/Apr/10 with Hannah, Bridgette

Lovely climb although the slab would have been far nicer in the dry!!!

HS 4B in grade and just been re-cleaned so lower section is dirty.
ritchierich - AltLd rpt - 03/May/08 with Wyn Price

In one long (55m) pitch - super stuff. The long slabby first pitch has very little gear (prob VS 4b), the short steep second pitch is harder but has loads of gear (VS 4c).

Stone fall, one trashed rope.(plus a nauseous hangover)
