Malcolm Smith has flashed Underworld at Earl Crag, today 22nd Jan. The problem 'Underworld' is a slightly overhanging, undercut wall with a smattering of fairly poor edges and shallow dishes, left of the classic 7c, Underpants (climbed by Adam Long in the 'Stick It' video). First ascent, Ben Moon.

Is this the first Font 8a Gritstone Flash?
