6b, S1. A rite-of-passage route with its crux at the top. From the starting ledge traverse the break left for 8m to a small ledge then climb the first big groove diagonally leftwards to its finishing bulge. Leaving the big jug may take some will power. USER COMMENTS
I'm sure leaving the big jug is english 5c
I agree with Ben
Naturally...
5b or 5c, I found it terrifying - much more 'out there' climbing on this wall than in Connors. It felt like soloing.
Brilliant route, but make sure the finish is clean. We had to finish up For Whom the Swell Tolls L from the big jug due the amount of crud on the finish.
This is a brilliant route, the style,the altitude and the little crux on the top make it. Not powerfull but nice!
Its an awsome plummet from the crux!!
Waaay easier than the Conger. Jugs all the way until just before the top. Wonderful!
As with many so-called "essential ticks" it has several prominent characteristics of which enjoyment is not the main one. Hugely committing although the well-described move is mild....for 5c. |
