In reply to bruce woodley:
Hi Bruce, I made an attempt on the route a few years' back with Stu Bradbury, Don Sargeant and Andy Bullock, which came to an abrupt end when rain stopped play as I was contemplating the final crack after the traverse left from the first stance. From memory there were two in situ steel reinforcing rods above me at my high point. I placed a blade peg directly into what had become mud to retreat back to the stance. We had a cam in an expanding crack above the niche/cave stance, placed a channel peg, clipped an inset peg and another rod, and then got the f%*k out of it.....carefully. The first pitch is very straightforward as long as one is happy with the 6" nail and a cabbage stalk for protection. We shall return.
