The Hard Road indeed! Made even more so by Hugh's decision to use only natural protection. Consider pre-inspection by abseil, not for the faint hearted but worth thinking about if you are a strong leader at the grade with skill in placing trad gear.

Mon 30th Sep 2019
Great climb. First ascent was Tom Giles. I went up and tried it ground up, then stuffed around for an hour in the sun while everyone got hot and bothered. When I came down with my tail between my legs and apologised for wasting a greta deal of everyones time Tom replied "It's ok, your intentions were good" and so the "Road to Hell" was paved.

The top pitch fells like you have run out of annual leave and had to go back to work. Easy climbing on big holds, unfortunately the rock is questionable in places and there are long breaks between pretty ordinary gear. Best left to a strong leader, or just left...

Hugh Ward
Sun 16th Apr 2017
FFA. This was the First Ascent. Unfortunately Thomas Giles doesn't have a Crag Login and George was tagged in error. The initial attempt was made ground up. Hugh Ward jumped on the lead (wearing brand new and extremely tight shoes) and stuffed around for an hour or so in the hot sun before placing a bolt and coming down under a cloud of shame. His apologies for the time wasting were loud, repetitive and heartfelt and Tom eventually attempted to put him at ease by saying "It's Ok, your intentions were good" and so the Road to Hell was paved...

After Hugh gave the route a quick clean on rap, Tom lead it cleanly in his characteristically relaxed fashion and Hugh and Bridie followed without the delay of the previous attempt
