Technically a different link-up, but I don't know what else to call it. First pitch of Whymper, then start 2nd pitch of SMPU and traverse across to 2nd pitch of SD, then onwards to SN link-up. 4th pitch is really nice.

This is probably my favourite winter crag, but bugger me there's some sandbags around here.

What a great day! Worth it just for the excellent hike to get in and the views.
First pitch is pumpy, second is fun, third is awesome. Gets a little thin at the crux but all positive edges. Really fun. Even got to be serenaded by a wedding singer over near hanging rock! |
