Got it third go after putting it off for years. The first time I've ever celebrated topping out a dogged route. Stoked.

Cruised up to the lip, but fell at the last hurdle. I think I have the beta now, just need to get my jamming up to scratch!

It beat me again. Did a lot better this time though as I had three goes at the crux before I fell off and at least I didn’t get concussion this time.

Absolutely classic struggle!Cruised lower section and found it really hard to move after first jam over roof which I got on the 5th(!) go after down climbing the roof 4 times. Plenty of gear wherever I needed it. Never before have I had to commit so much to jams and really grovel. Would have liked to have finished in fine style but not today. Both ropes jammed in crack as soon as I topped out and had to untie!

Daniel Heath - 2nd dog - 16/Oct/10 with Remus

Hidden - Lead dnf - 16/Oct/10

tried to go right at the top, not up the left crack, and missed the good sloper out left altogether (genius..). It was reasonably wet in the top breaks. Jamming made me bleed, and trying to ringlock the flared right crack bruised my fingers painfully. But the truth is, I simply need to get better and come back. http://www.andy-kirkpatrick.com/articles/view_stories/q_is_for_quietus

Got to within about 6" of the top, but couldn't work out the move; I have no idea how it's 5c, unless it's because I'm short and can't jam. Managed to reverse to the slab from the crux a couple of times, but it didn't help.

Big head first fall from the jamming cracks, bashed into ledges, good job i had my helmet on; almost there but trying to use the middle crack to make it to the top, should have stayed further left for longer, also need to use shorter quickdraw on the last bit of gear in the roof so i don't fall so far, and have pro for both ropes as near to lip as possible to decrease rope stretch on a fall.

Been up there before at the lip about 8 times before i actually did it, jammed it all the way over the lip, thin but bomber jams nontheless. And the top rolls back about 3foot further than i expected, chuffed when i did this. Outstanding.
