A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

Start on the juggy rail in the cave just like the Lizard Lip. Move left and throw for a good rail, match and bring your feet across, that is the "lunging" part of the lounge lizards done.
