I really liked this! Super interesting climbing with flared jams, shallow bridging, face climbing and a layback section to finish. Sustained and technical. Would be hard to place gear on lead. The undercling is fragile, don't break it or it'll get a lot harder! Second shot tr.

This really is great. The first bit of Inquisition is excellent, clean, interesting climbing. The top half of Catcher in the Rye is wonderful, jams and locks and quite sustained on excellent rock. It's a little dirty as nobody ever does it. Might be 24, certainly had Wendy and I pulling out all stops to get up it without coming off despite having TR'd it a few days ago.

OK, I wasn't really taken with this but it is a nice long pitch. I found the finish very hard.

Just squeaked up this one on second! Really good, odd climbing, very sustained for the first 8m or so.

Nice climbing with all the hard moves in the top third. Easier than BM, might be 22?

Backed off on lead, crux is probably safe but comitting.

Good climbing, bolts are probably suspect and there's a silly #4RP behind a loose looking flake at the top. At the moment, a good one to toprope off the chains.

Just did the roof on P2 which seems too hard for 19. Not bad, a little dirty and loose in places but.. good on second!

This is really worthwhile if you don't mind a little offwidthing. The initial finger crack is great, then there's a section of hand crack with one loose feeling block (I gave it a good tug on second but it seems solidly wedged). After this a long section of offwith - but it's easy due to holds around the crack. Until there aren't. A short section of proper offwidthing (I did my first hand/fist stack - and it worked!) leads to a welcome fig tree and a wide finish that's not too hard. A great, long pitch.
