In reply to Ed morris:

Yes there is. It's in the CC West Penwith guide.

I'd recommend The Womb Tomb as being most amusing.

If you like terrifying VSs then there's a beautiful arete somewhere to the right which gives excellent climbing. Just don't fall off!

In reply to Ed morris: Too right, The Cull is one of the best routes in the S West! Its in The N Devon and Cornwall guide strangely

Not for years it hasn't.

Ignore Al's post, its now in the CC West Penwith guide.

I can recommend you have a look at Pen Olver. We spent a day there last year and it's a very pleasant crag. There's quite a few climbs in the grade range you're looking for and the approach doesn't require an abseil (although it took us a while to find!).

We also popped into Trewavas on our Cornwall trip this year and that's probably worth a look. Check the ukc crag search for some more adventurous suggestions, if that's what you're looking for.

Some nice looking DWS in Mike Robertson's guide.

My mate reckons it's pretty good.

Bosigran and Sennen are not that not far from the Lizard. BTW did you use to sail a Topper near Ringwood?

In reply to Al Evans:

Aye, probably my best trad day so far this year, or close to..... North West Passage late morning/lunchtime, ice cream and lunch break, then Gogarth in the late afternoon. Classic stuff. Had some serious rope drag by the time I topped out on NWP mind you
