A brilliant and revolutionary route which gives superb sustained climbing which is never desperate. Spend a few weeks stamina training at the climbing wall then go for it and you may get an 8a tick.
FA. B.Moon 25.6.84. One of THE routes of the 1980s which was the first to have a lot of bolts placed exclusively for protection. Ben Moon spent 8 days working on the route which was also an unheard-of idea at the time. It has since had lots of ascents including a few on-sight flashes.
