Hidden - AltLd - 16/Aug/12
Loose rock, muddy cracks, sparse gear, and not 4a at the top. Lead the 2nd - nicest bit. 0ddba11 - AltLd O/S - 10/Aug/12 with Colin Crockart
Don't think the fierce crack (5b?) at the top of the last pitch is the finish that's described, I suspect the easier angled groove to it's right is. That looks a bit bolder though (especially if belayed immediately under it like we were), and still not easy looking. There is a tenuous alternative out left too. I opted for the crack but ended up frigging it. Calder - AltLd dog - 30/Aug/10 with Charlie
Pitch two simply brilliant. Too much vegatation on first pitch. Top pitch is a struggle. Spotlessly clean shoes essential. Feels much harder than HS 4a. More like VS 5b. texuspete - AltLd - 22/Aug/10 with Charles Clay, Rob Pontefract
Final pitch is good, but tough, and well undergraded. More like 5a? Led Ps 1 & 3. Andy Clarke - AltLd O/S - 20/Jun/10
Didn't fancy the last 5m of the last pitch so got a top rope chucked down. Found it wet even though the rest of the route was dry and the useful crack was filled with mud (so not so useful)!
Loved the exposure on the middle pitch. Really fun! Rosie Henstock - Lead O/S - 17/Oct/09 with Katie Jeans
Hidden - Lead O/S - 09/Aug/09
Top pitch in very poor condition, green and greasy as some previous climbers probably agreed due to the amount of gear we found up there. We thought we'd come across a stash but then had to use it to ab off! fizzychewitt - AltLd - 21/Sep/08 with Francis
led 2nd pitch clean. top pitch in bad condition. Milne - AltLd dnf - 02/Aug/08 with paul strutt
