This was meant to be easy, but the direct start turned out to be harder than the guide book suggests. Maybe we missed something obvious, but there was alot of tat left on this line, evidence of previous epics and retreats. I would pitch this section in 3 short pitches another time.

Loved this route, the final traverse was scarier than the start (pictured)

Lovely warm-up route for Excalibur which we did on the same day. Bomber pro and gorgeous views.

Pitch 2 is the best pitch on the whole mountain. Only one good Swedge or small stopper between you and a big whipper into a large wall (fatal for sure) Very small but positive holds made this a joy to climb

Nice route, traversing the orange wall was easier than it looked. Bold finish through the roof.

I wish I had got this one on-sight, but Matty beat me to it. Ive climbed it three times now, and enjoyed every time.

Nice face climbing on good incut holds, not visible from below, so it requires faith.

We started too far left and got into minor difficulties, but the route still went at about 5.9. Delicate face moves then a thuggy crack to finish. Leader fell on size 2 friend, I caught him, nice and soft

Finest route on the crag, big thuggy moves and massive exposure over the cleanest of sharp edges. I want its babies.
