sparkass - Lead O/S - 08/Sep/12 with Andrew Wightman

My first grit E4, but it definitely felt easy for the grade. Probably only one 6a move past the first break where the pro isn't great, then runout but easy climbing to finish. Brilliant route though, gives a bit of a buzz!
Joughton - Lead O/S - 03/Sep/12

Felt ok when I used a decent sequence
Ed morris - TR RP - 19/Jun/12 with haydn

Rich Kirby - Lead O/S - 12/May/12 with Ruth

With Shunt. Really annoyed I got it wrong first go. Second go got right foot level with hands before getting the pocket, worked better.
Daniel Heath - TR RP - 30/Mar/12

First E4 onsight on grit. Get in! Crux felt intense but appears to be well protected.

Hidden - TR dog - 06/Nov/11

First E4, and first success on anything harder than E2 in 2 and half years. Semi beta flashed, since I'd seen the pics, knew to bring tiny cams and that sideways RPs were involved, and had also read a right hand/left hand debate about the pocket (from which I took a hybrid solution). Took an hour to protect and suss out the crux, laced with 5 runners so felt happy to commit, and only about E1-ish once you get the second break, thus maybe E3 6a overall but I'll claim the glory of breaking a new trad grade, probably for the final time, one day after 35th b'day.

Wish I'd lead it. Will return. Easier for the short by the feel of it and watching my rather tall partner struggle...
Alison2 - 2nd O/S - 28/Jul/11 with matthew154

didn't read the move from the pocket right, was OK once worked out. Think I could/would like to try leading this as if placed well gear is OK and is effectively a one move wonder.
Graeme Hammond - 2nd dog - 30/Jun/11 with Gavin

They were trying to con me into trying to lead this, turns out I don't trust a collection of sliders and RP's as much as everyone else. Took two falls on the crux mantleshelf which I found really hard, and nearly fell on the top arete. One day I'll come back to lead when I'm feeling cocky.

Hidden - 2nd dnf - 28/Sep/08

Very silly - climbing on grit again boggled me and I slumped on the first go but pulled ropes and myself together and did it...twice.

GrantB - 2nd - 13/Sep/08 with Alaan

Put the side runner in at the top but only 'cause Tyler said it was ok....
chris sm - Lead rpt - 23/Aug/08 with Pippa Froggatt

Not quite the pure onsight... Saw several people both succeed and fail, plus plenty of shouted up advice. Good route; suits the bouldering wall trained climber!

Almost levitated the crux, somehow all of a sudden was at the break. Most enjoyable. Stiched it up with RPs

First "E4" onsight. Felt much much easier than the grade suggests methinks.
Will Hunt - Lead O/S - 2008 with Bry Lowe

did it with left hand in the pocket. despite good conditions and total confidence in the gear, still didn't feel like the soft touch everyone says it is. Very good sequence though. Was intending to try Trout today but couldn't get going on it so finished up the arete. 16/11/05 previously failed on

Having failed to top rope 2 yrs ago on every section, then failed to lead in perfect coniditions 1yr ago, lead with 1 fall at crux this time round just after a huge downpour in the sun, brilliant little move , followed by exciting arete sprinting.
Alex Mason - Lead - 08/Jul/07 with mick radford

Hidden - TR - 14/May/07

It actually takes a 00 cam next to some of the tiny nuts, it looked like it would hold. Plenty of small nuts anyway.
