In reply to Bulls Crack: Now come on, I think you might be painting a slightly blacker picture than reality. I mean lets face it, many of the routes at avon and wintours are about 4-5 times the length of some routes at stanage:
Wintours:
Bottle Buttress
Central rib
the corner routes
Pappillion + a few others on fly wall
Left and right hand route
Greta (or is that VS? can't remember)
Shorn cliff there are quite a few scattered around - admitedly a bit better at VS + but a great venue
Avon:
Morpheus
Nightmare
Sleepwalk
The arete
Sinster
Dexter
Early morning traverse
Bobs climb
Direct route
Plus a few other lesser climbs
Cheddar: Admitedly better at HVS+ but even so:
Jack & Jill
Eden crack (bit of a ramble but hey)
Knights climb
The offwidth up the right hand side of Lion rock
plus a stackload of sports to help improve technique, including lots of 4's and 5's
Goblin combe:
Stackloads to go at and all worthwhile. It's a friendly good quality crag.
Do I need to carry on? Stop depressing the poor lad. By the time he's ticked the abov he'll be ready for the VS and then theres a lot more to go at...
