"Describing Sector 45 Degrees, Gaz told us:

"The crag has around 27 lines. 19 are climbed from 6a-8c+. The rest are projects from 8a to 9a/+."

I assume this is meant to read "19 are climbed from 6a-7c+?

No, I'd say his new F8c+ is one of the 19 climbed ones...

Ah, I misread the line, I thought it was dividing up the climbs into grade boundaries rather than climbed / unclimbed. Helps if i read things correctly before pointing out supposed errors

If it is indeed the 'king line', can we assume it includes the arête just right of centre in the photo at the bottom of the article?
