I'm surprised there's not more prangs on this. The layback is pretty slip-off-able and big cams aren't always the best things in the world. Having a couple of #4 camalots for the flake would be prudent rather than relying on one.

Blackheath Area Gateway, Doomsday & Fort Rock Doomsday Wall | ||||||
20 | One for the Old School - with Duncan Steel † | 17m, 5 | Don't Bother | |||
Glad Duncan led this! Can't imagine many people would bother with this one? I'm actually not really sure why you bolted it Monty, let alone with carrots. I'm sure there's a good story.
|
||||||
22 | ★★ Minority of Fun - with Duncan Steel † | 33m, 13 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Need to second as the massive traverse makes it "uncleanable" otherwise. The slab section off the belay on orange marble was super-tech!

My first time at Perry's, and what a way to pop the cherry! An incredible day out with Julian on his masterpiece of a route. The rock on this thing is just off the charts good. Keen to head back for the two pitches I didn't get clean.

This will eventually be freed by someone, but it won't be me. You'll need to enjoy pulling and campussing on quite small, sharp-ish holds through a more than horizontal roof.
