First pitch is easy/pleasant/clean. Pitch 2 & 3 aren't great. Bit dirty.

Do this if you want to practise fist-jamming. It's perfect!

Great! Has it all: tricky mantle, balancey slab-moves, steepening climax! Very tasty!

Super climb! Did in in 2 pitches, purely because I wanted my medium cams retrieved. Swallows a lot of medium gear. The small roof is ... exciting!

Did it as a climb-out in single pitch with packs. LOADS of rope drag = sore legs. If a sport climb, very run-out, but easy.

Very few bolts, and not much natural pro if any. Kept wandering onto this while doing H.P. I'll count the tick anyway!

25/12/02 - First second on trad gear. Wish I led it, but would probably be too scared. 24/5/03 - Planned to go round to Flake Crack, but couldn't go past this thing! Truly an awesome line! Totally enjoyable! First 'real' trad lead ( > grade 14!!)

First move eats up all of the 18 grading. The rest is a 7? Easy solo. Some walkouts would be harder.
