Just seen your addition to the description - nice one! But I don't remember seeing any old bolts (I remember there was one very low down but that was on the traverse of the back wall.....and was used as a sneaky finger hold by the less capable ;-)......maybe I was just concentrating too much on the climbing - I never thought of it as a lead....

One of These Days Direct Start - not worth bothering with - always manky
Exit on Air - rarely climbed these days. Probably led by Phil Davidson Black Magic Direct - not sure if this has been climbed let alone led Parkers Mood NL as far as I know Euphoria - again NL and now returned to jumgle TreadMill - I think this was solo'd in the old days I cleaned up the top of Dateline and Sinbad and Never Mind the Acid earlier this year. Black Magic looks OK. Will try and clean others - any help appreciated! |

First - well done lads for publicising this wall which has some of the best routes in the area - though being north facing it tends toi be green and needs regular cleaning.
One of These Days - a super route (fingery wall climbing then thin bridging) which used to be solo'd regularly but is now a tougher proposition - at least E3. One of These Days Direct Finish (also called Nightride) - a great route which can be led (old peg under overhang). The crux involves undercutting and wide bridging. E4. Alto Sax Break - only climbed by Phil Davidson on rope Padarn Dance - also known as Dance of the Flaming Arsehole. May have been led with runners in c rack. Dateline. E2 is a bit mean for a sight lead. Sinbad - a great route which can be led with runners in crack Depression - beacme possible when old bolt removed. Crux moves are very fingery and smeary. NL as far as I know. Black Magic - harder than it used to be. E6 for sight lead? Acid Test - bomber F1 in slot and threads in top break. E5? Never Mind the Acid - can be protected but very fiddly. E4? |
