Martin Bennett - 2013

Jon Started. Repeat for him 40 years on!! Good man, legend. Went wrong (Thanks Jon...) to 3rd pitch of Totalitarian, the weird mantleshelf. Break off earlier below, a senior moment... Chossy ascent, gear little ropey in places, great traverse though. 4B? If you were just a 4B leader, you'd of had your brown trousers on! Descent worse than the ascent, ab from pinnancle next time, bring some tat. Will be back for Totalitarian.

A real adventure. A bushwhack into the base of the route and then instant exposure on what feels like a very big cliff. Fantastic value at VS 4b. A cool head plus skill & cunning at gear fettling a real advantage... The walk off not without interest either, although at least the Blueberries were delicious.
