UKC Logbook - 'Apple Arête'

18m.

Rockfax Description
The left-hand arete of the buttress is excellent and mild. Climb the central crack and make a short traverse left to the arete on the lowest break. This is then followed throughout with good runners in the breaks and lovely positions. Very photogenic. © Rockfax

Rampikino	12 Jun, 2006	Show βeta βeta: Contrived and eliminate?? That couldn't be further from the truth. The line is perfect, natural and in a wonderful position. The climbing is excellent. Deserves the 3 stars and miserable grumps should stay away. LOL	βeta?

Si dH	16 May, 2005	Show βeta βeta: Definitely best to traverse in the first break, not higher up. I say the grade is fair enough, possibly 4c. Very nice!	βeta?

Simon Caldwell	4 Aug, 2003	Show βeta βeta: Just read a couple of old guidebooks, 1970 and 1981, both have this route traversing left at 8 feet, ie below the flake of Apple Crack. Tried this yesterday, much harder, at least 4c, but with gear above the head.	βeta?

Nick Smith - Climbers	15 Jul, 2003	Show βeta βeta: It's much easier to walk along the top of the crag at Gardom's - too much like hard work to scramble along the bottom between the buttresses!	βeta?
