In reply to Will Cat:
The 3 routes in question were bolted last year.
I don't know the history of the routes apart from the fact that they probably haven't seen more than 1 or 2 ascents since they were put up in the 90's.
All of the routes relied on pegs and small thread's to a greater or lesser extent.
All the original pegs and tat are in a very poor state and it would be beneficial to take out said rusty metal work.
The access is a little awkward down to the crag so i doubt it's going to get busy down there and seeing as anstey's is closer anyway i suspect most sport climbers would be going there rather than exile buttress.
I have taken over the moderator's role recently and updated the crag to show the routes as sport climbs and as far as i know no one has been down there to repeat them.
The routes look good and with it being dry the last week they should be climbable now.
Best get down there before someone comes down and rips all the bolts out.The easier route does look like a reasonable onsight trad proposition but the other two just look desperate and bold , especially with just the insitu rotting pegs and tat.
It would be interesting to know whether they have ever seen an onsight?
Can i please state that i did not bolt these routes and have no particular feelings towards "should the bolts be there" or not.
Cheers
