UKC Logbook - 'Lucky Strike'

39m.

Rockfax Description
The main line of the slab is a Littlejohn classic and one of the great climbs of Pembroke. The route has adequate protection if you can stop to place it all. Start from the ledge below the corner or, at low tide, from the huge boulder - this is the original line although most ascents use the higher start. Move up right to gain the rising traverse line. An awkward small rightwards step gains the main flake which is more strenuous than you might think. Follow this, which eases as you get higher, to below a thin crack. Climb the crack and blocky ground above to the top. © Rockfax

graeme thomson	13 Jun, 2005	Show βeta βeta: Youre right about it being serious for the second. Basically its e1, and never harder than 5b, but the environment and the consequences of your second taking a slip are pretty harsh	βeta?

john horscroft	21 Feb, 2005	Show βeta βeta: Sounds daft I know, but I reckon Lucky Strike is harder than Strike Lucky. The comment about the second on LS is very true which is why I reckon it deserves to be E2. SL by comparison is straightforward and well geared.	βeta?
