Routes in Northern England for selected grade

Hard moves (some say 5c) utilising the black pebble to gain reasonable footholds. Now pull onto the big ledge (highball, no pro). Once on ledge first pro with small wire and a bit higher a small cam (can be backed up by a poor yellow camalot on right, but fills up a hanhold). Now make some steep moves to a thread (last pro), now all that remains is to find the chipped hold and find a way to use it to top out. Very Gritstonesque.

Left-facing flakes just left of a large blank shield then up to a high lower-off.

Layback up the crack untill it 'fizzles out', place all your remaining gear. Continue using a high right foot and balance untill the top can be reached.

Line of fixed hangers left of 'No Picnic for Teddy Bears', starting from small ledge. Up and slightly left past large (hollow) flake, right and over pinnacle, then up. Lower-off is located on side of summit block.

Climb the curving arete all the way across

Superb strenuous start leading to excellent climbing up the exposed pillar.

Climb through overlap then up and right on excellent holds, finishing direct to the lower off. Lovely sustained climbing.
