Ricky Bell has been up at Buzzard's Roost in Northern Ireland, the home of the infamous route Divided Years, and ticked off a new climb - The Peace Line (E7/8).

Ricky's route description is:

The Peace Line *** 55m E7/8 6c

R.Bell, M.O'loughlin, H.Fogg (Headpoint) 26/9/10

Bouldery climbing in a spectacular position. Follow the start of Divided Years and onto the big ledge out left at half height. Continue up the groove above to a small roof and good cams. A long bouldery section leads via the short arete to the finishing jugs of Divided Years.

Nice one Ricky.

That looks a spectacular route! But why is "Divided Years" infamous?

Well, apart from looking rather nice it was potentially pretty groundbreaking given that it was graded E10 way back in 1994 (that's what, 6 years before Equilibrium?). New route looks pretty cool too, nice one.

In reply: "(Headpoint) 26/9/10" Well done for being totally up front about the style, too. This does not happen enough.

Great choice for the new route name as well
