UKC

45m.

Rockfax Description
A big, safe climb with atmosphere. Start up Act Naturally - you will need some gear to reach the final well-bolted slab above the ramp. For the upper section, sustained but straightforward climbing leads past a large number of bolts to the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Follow Act Naturally (wires) to where it starts to traverse right at about 10/12m. Then follow the line of 10 bolts weaving there way up to the left of 'Dr Stranglove' to a top out and double bolt belay - one next to the edge and one further back on a big flat block. Good climbing with the crux near the top! Could be done in two pitches if you fancy.

βeta: Bolted sport route with HS approach, 6a seems fair. Can now be approached via Ronald Reagan meets Dr Strangelove for a full sport experience.

βeta: 'Ronald Reagan meets Doctor Strangelove' has been retro bolted (at request of first accentionist according to tag on first bolt). This now makes a logical bolted start to this route.

βeta: Obviously it’s not really a trad E1 but a (very good) 6a sport route.
