Excellent - E1 next then - have you got your eye on one?

Not yet. Next on the list is Jo at the Boulder Ruckle. I can't wait.

Well done on the first HVS, but I'm afraid that it's not a Joe Brown route. According to the Froggatt guide book, he tried it but couldn't reach the holds on the arete, and gave up when his only runner (a threaded chockstone wedged in the crack) fell out. You'll just have to do Valkyrie next time - that is a Brown HVS and even better than CB.

I think I got it mixed up with Chequers climb. Changed it now. Cheers.
