Rockfax Description
An eliminate which compromises Sox and has lots of glue. Climb rightwards to the groove of La Chute and then engage the power for the bulges above moving back left to finish. © Rockfax

βeta: Good climbing and good moves. I'm glad I did this after glued on holds were removed. Maybe route should be renamed and FA logged now it is climbed naturally. Still 7a+. | βeta? | |

βeta: I never could be bothered to do this when it had the glued on holds. They were just sharp and unpleasant. Sooooo much better without. All the moves are great. It climbs slightly left of 1st bolt which is Sox. Then it skirts right and up to finish up Sox. So perhaps this should be called Socks? | βeta? | |

βeta: I knocked off all four glued on holds last week, did all those moves without them and cleaned the route. Yesterday the route was climbed so all good. Still 7a+ and a good route. Hope more people get on it. | βeta? | |

βeta: I am in agreement with Seb here. There is no doubt that this route gives decent moves but it is fully created and also compromises an existing route. Another in a long line of examples of the desperate desire for a first ascent being at the expense of showing respect for what has gone before. Retro-bolting Sox would have been better than this but that doesn't add to the new routes tally! | βeta? | |

βeta: When did it become acceptable to stick on extra holds? This route has multiple (10+) glued on extra sharp holds. They should be removed and this route removed from the log. The bolts could remain and provide protection for Sox if that is deemed acceptable. | βeta? | |
