Such an amazing problem. I'd love to try it sometime.

Superb....quite an interesting sequence she used (ie palming down on the lip)....is that how everyone does it?

Superb. Love the bit at the end - [Looking around quizically, and pointing] "How do I get down?!"

Watching MLW (who let's face it isn't bad) struggling up it like that puts into perspective how bloody good Lynn Hill was (surely the best climber ever?). There's a video of her on the internet somewhere doing it 20+ years ago (first female ascent, I think), looking like silk. jcm
