Restricted Access

As mentioned in beta there are peregrine nesting on second pitch of Flodden. Please avoid for time being. 

220m, 7 pitches. Effectively a VS route with a hard E1 5c move on pitch 2. Some parties choose to aid this section pulling on slings and pegs, reducing the grade to Shame.

βeta: Crux roof ended up being fairly straightforward, just requiring some grunt on reasonably good holds and a big kick. WARNING: Large undercut out from the roof was flexing a lot so take care with this!!! Route finding was no real problem. Took a big S line on the 10m linkup pitch and continued over the roof on the right of the nose
