On Sunday 18th February 2001 I was laybacking up the flake to the right of the first bolt when a huge bit broke off with me attached. The block hit the crack in the ledge below and broke in half and wedged. Luckily it missed my second and I swung on the bolt, but it was close! Anyway, I am reporting it because the route has changed. I don't think its any harder - just different - still a great route.

So what happened to the immaculate rock?

I left this one 'til late in my Portland experience, doing it not long after Peter (above) destroyed it(!).
Still, excellent route in my book, although in general I'm not a fan of long routes. This HAS to be done if you visit the isle - there are just so many different styles along its length.

Always a relief to reach the 2nd bolt, particularly as you can't see it from below.
Big stretch for the short to gain the first holds
Great route though.

Overrated in my humble opinion and not as good as either of the two climbs to the left.

Lots of variety - fantastic route.
Hard to pick a favourite between this, Jewel, and Stalkers.

Excellent route. No particularly hard moves just sustained. Quite a few good resting places though.
