As Alex forgot to get one of my cams when he was abbing for gear, I led the lower section again by headtorch to reach the other end of the ab rope, and fetch the gear. Finding the feet was difficult! Next time hopefully!

charley u 9 Jul, 2015 Lead O/S The start took a bit of working out, not sure if I missed anything obvious but ended up doing quite technical moves to get past the crux. The conditions didn't help, was very hot - I was literally dripping wet at the rest before the flake. Not sure if I traversed a bit too low to get to the flake, I climbed directly up to it on using pockets rather than swinging onto it. Glad the holds on the flake got better and better! Brilliant route, had to fight the pump but loved it...

Stanley 25 Jul, 2011 Lead dnf Normally cant see the point of putting did not finish, but this climb resulted in my biggest fall ever, as a result of trying to go from Vdiff to E1 in about 2 weeks. A not so gentle reminder to wear helmet, following falling face first into the rockface and then taking out my belayer. Awesome climb, just messed up the sequence by coming too far right and couldn't revse. :)

ruaidh 31 May, 2010 2nd First moves up the crack are teh hardest I think. The key is the pocket/jug on the left at about 4m. Micro-cam useful just under the bulge to the left of the OH flake. The flake itself is strenuous but positive, though I didn't have to arrange the nut.

Humpty Dangler 9 Jun, 2008 2nd rpt Jordan fell whilst resting on a piece of gear that pinged out of the flake, proving the importance of good gear on the left and the effectiveness of half ropes. He took a bit of a pendulum and ended up 2 metres off the deck. By my reckoning, if you slip when making that placement or when passing it and it comes out then you will hit the floor. My second attempt at seconding was much easier for knowing the initial sequence of moves up to 3 metres and I finished the whole route without a pause. I came away convinced I could lead it, and may give it a try on Thursday evening. Having to protect the flake myself will make it an entirely different proposition however.

Humpty Dangler 24 Mar, 2008 2nd dog Standing at the bottom and looking up at the route for the first time I expected all the difficulty to be in surmounting the bulge at mid-height and getting over the roof at the top. In fact the real problem was at the bottom. The parallel cracks were hard work, but were avoidable to the left, where a huge jug and some high feet allowed access to an invisible jug that opened up the rest of the route. From there it was plain sailing, the bulge was easy because of the holds on the flake, and the roof has massive holds. And Jordan dropped his Reverso. The shout of "Below!", came ten seconds after it buried itself in the dirt three feet to my left.
