I on-sight yoyo'd this in true 70's style to ensure that the ascent was as true as possible to the time in which the climb was put up. But this was the kind of yoyo in which one does not untie once at the ground, because in this version of the 70s universe if you haven't gone through the crux yet but your gear happens to slide off your harness, you still retain the onsight if you eat a blue lobster but only on a Monday, in the dark and preferably wearing blue jeans. Which is to say, if you complete the climb, then you untie at the anchor and call secure rather than safe. Then you can safely call onsight without being called out. Yeah probably fair enough. Thanks Fraser

Very well protected, airy and superb climbing. Felt easy for the grade, perhaps there is an easier and a harder way to do it, but it would feel strange doing a slightly harder move where an easier one would suffice. I didn't know there was a lower off rap station, I didn't see that before! Means only a 60m rope would be needed to rap the face rather than going down Linda chimney

First pitch is certainly spooky stepping around the arete straight into steepness. I lead the second. Classic pipes steep mixed bag route up a broken crack system. Jugs, crimps, flared jams, good jams, sequencey feet. Gave it a red hot go, but a foot popped unexpectedly and whipped onto a black totem. Seems to always be the black! From there on it was anything goes as the rain was starting and my arms were pulped.

Nice way to finish and top out. We split it into two as the rope got caught in a groove and the drag was horrible. | 120m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Very worthwhile. Full height routes like this, with no bolted belays and requiring some thought for the descent really adds to that "adventure in our backyard" feel. Reinforced for me how lucky we are to have this place so close. Route finding was obvious and the descent was easier to find than we were expecting. Which was lucky as we got back to our packs right on dark. Such a great day.

Fun climbing with a multitude of possible lines. A funky move done on the left line which sent Angus into a pendulum swing.

Pretty beta intensive climb, crimpy pumpy start with lots of high feet and tricky to work out crux at the top. Managed to work it after a few falls.
