Created the route 34 ★★★ Light Weight Baby.
description
This route was previously known as The Sean Myles Project and bolted in around '92 by its English namesake. Like a woody problem on classic Arapilisian bums through a steep wall to finish up crimpy headwall. Start at base of roof left of Aristocrat (clip the 3 dynas with single biners for easy of climbing, and to keep rope away from holds). Slappy compression leads to base of seam. Clip bolt at lip and head straight up via pulls between edges and last bolt to easy finish and single bolt lower-off.

Awesome Ben. My memory isn't as good as it once was. Wasn't there another project next to it? Moffat's?

Yeah, Jerry chipped the buggery out of it. It's awful and has been un-bolted. So there no "line" there as such - just some old dyna-bolt sleeves

Thanks. Makes sense to decommission.
I remember checking it out back in the day and that it was obvious Moffat has been a tad energetic...
Was your send of Sean's old project recent or a while back? It was the line, so it's great to see it had an ascent.

Yeah just the other day (6th May)
