Route in Gotham City

Sustained, steep and classy. Deservedly popular.

Start as for 'Cromagnon Man' which is initialed (around 5m right of Batman and Robyn which is also initialed).

Getting the draws off this route can be problematic, because it is quite steep, so once you remove the last draw you tend to go pinging off into a dead tree (not fun!). The best option to clean (other than top-roping) is to thread your rope though a malleon left on one of the bolts halfway up the route; unfortunately a lot of people who are new to climbing frequent this route and they think a crappy malleon is the best bootie ever and it keeps getting taken (quite annoying!). So please leave the malleon there if you come across it
