Fantastic route. First pitch starts with a awkward section, then some really cool moves. Especially enjoyed the face near the top. Second pitch is amazing. Some really cool moves from the start with a really wild sequence to a horn feature.

Route was quite dirty. Hard to find footholds in the moss. We cleaned it up a bit. I got to the second bolt. Couldn't work out how to get past it. George did went up after me and got through it staying further right than I did. Seems like quite a cool route when clean.

Thought I had the first boulder sorted after last session, but I did not. Took a bit of working out. Spent a little time sorting out the middle and top sections. Sent it on the last try of the day. Was a bit of a fight and not the best looking (or sounding) ascent, but happy to do it.
