Liam Desroy has pieced together a hard new link in Parisella's Cave, namely the obvious Rock Atrocity – Clyde connection. Liam reckoned it was worth V12/8a+; the more astute NorthWalesBouldering.com readers will have spotted the downgrade implications of such a statement for Clyde, which may end up being considered V11/8a, rather than Gaz Parry's original assessment of V12/8a+. Clyde has received several repeats and new beta has emerged, as it often does in the cave, so perhaps Liam is right in his conservative rating.
Interestingly, Gaz's left hand exit, Bonnie V11/8a remains unrepeated, despite attempts from various climbers.
