UKC Logbook - 'Rock Idol'

45m.

Rockfax Description
The best E1 in Britain? Probably! The line follows the huge corner all the way but on an angle of rock normally reserved for E5s. Start below the corner and climb up to the sloping ledge. Climb the right wall to an overhang. Move around this and continue to another bulge with a line of holds leading out right. Ignore these holds and pull over the daunting bulge above on some of the biggest holds in the universe. Continue straight up the crack and right-leaning groove above to ledges. Climb the crack above to the top, then stand back and beat your chest triumphantly! © Rockfax

FA. P.Littlejohn, R.Harrison May/1976.

Kyuzo	26 Oct, 2005	Show βeta βeta: Incredible! Totally awesome! Bring lots of slings to use as threads, more than 8 quickdraws would've been a good idea as well. Those holds really are big, some you can wrap your whole arm around.	βeta?

Paul Evans	15 Oct, 2005	Show βeta βeta: It's official - it's wonderful. Done it 3 times now and still mega. At the top, it's easy to traverse R too low. Also if there's been a heavy dew the night before, it can be a bit greasy (but still wonderful).	βeta?
