Intersting stinging nettles approach. Managed to get stung on the nose! Climbing was cool, one rest on P2 (need more flexibility), otherwise clean. P3 felt hard for 6b, all pretty tenuous and balancy. Very good route though and all the pitches had interesting climbing. So 2* We ended up taking our shoes and walking back to the Black Gate as the approach through Shoot gully was shite and we didn't relish tumbling down it on the way back!

Great, exposed route! Felt harder due to seepage on critical holds... I lead P1 and P3. Took a fairly big inverted fall on P3 (6b arete). Top tip: if it says "climb the arete", then climb the bloody arete and don't be tempted to move to what looks like better holds either side, like I did!!!!

This climb was too hard for me to do the clean onsight thing, but I knew it would be and really just wanted the experience of 'climbing' a full height route in the gorge. All four pitches are really good especially pitches 2 and 3.
Ybot Htulk - AltLd - 06/Nov/11 with Ivan

Four good pitches, pretty cold on fingers and topped out in darkness (due to late start and slow team ahead). Glad to have got the nerve up to do the route. I led 1 & 3. My leads were both fairly clean, the pitches I seconded were both properly dogged, well I'm not a 6b+ climber (crux) and I rushed the last pitch in the gathering dark (ripped open a big flapper on my finger doing this).

Absolutely brilliant route! Had a great day out, even though I fell off twice on the crux pitch, and had a couple of rests on the route. Guess that means I'm pushing myself! Will be back to lead it clean, and to have a go at 'Castles Made of Sand'. Chris P1,3. Chakrit P2,4.
Chris Sansum - AltLd dog - 16/Oct/11 with Chakrit Suriyo

A greasy adventure which started in thick fog and topped out in sunshine 4 hours later! Damp and warm conditions made route tough for grade today. Horrible wet muddy approach up Shoot Gulley and across nettle field. p1 led rp1; p2 2nd dog; p3 2nd o/s; p4 led o/s. Abbed down in 2 with 50m half ropes. Sopping wet grassy slopes with masses of stinging nettles lets the route down - 1 star for rock, 1 star for atmosphere and exposure but not a 3 star route imo.
Jon Didymus - AltLd - 13/Oct/11 with Rich

Jon lead pitch 1, i lead pitch 2 & 3, Jon lead pitch 4. Not a 3 star route.

Led the second (6b+) crux pitch and the final (6a) pitch. I don't think its anywhere near as good as its hype suggests though its still worth a star.
Quarryboy - AltLd O/S - 01/Oct/11 with Rob Stanfield

Very painful approach with the stinging nettles. OW! Still throbbing. Led 6a+ and 6b pitch. Found the 6a+ pitch not too bad but engagingly enjoyable. Might not have managed 6b+ pitch without the beta from belaying. Found the 6b pitch very awkward and slopy. Took a while to find the crucial hold around halfway up, very close to giving up. Stuggled with route finding before the 6b aswell as the "peg" that is mentioned was on the opposite side of the ledge. Thankfully got pointed which way to go by climbers on space hunter wall. Bit tired by final pitch so probably felt harder than it was. Sunset view on top was totally worthwhile. Descent down gulley was quite literally a pain in the arse. Great route, but only 2*'S in my opinion. Happy days.

Led P1, dogged P2, fell in nettles on P3, gave up on P4.

P1 6a+ L 2nd try (frozen fingers). P2 6b+ S dog (frozen fingers, got crux when tried a different sequence). P3 6b L OS. P4 6a L OS. The recommended descent down Shoot Gully is horrendous. It is too lethally loose to scramble down. We ended up abbing using trees along the edge, draggin my rope through the muck. No fun, especially with signs in the gully warning that the trees in it are loose.

Reachy P2. Quite hard move if you are short.... which luckily I'm not. Overall, low in the grade. Nice climbing but a shame about the scrambling pitches.
