Dumbarton is best known for bouldering and hard trad but there is a strong collection of quality sport routes in a part of the world where there's not many. They are mostly quick drying, highly accessible from the central belt and offer a wide variety of climbing styles but all with that unique Dumby feel. The current challenge is all the main 7's, 8 routes, in a single session. Garth's idea and he's the first to have done it. Once you've nailed these add Sufferance. Tarrier or Suffix to the top and drop NBL from the bottom and so on.
