This means a bit of a fighting struggle to top of it, unprotected. Perhaps conditions were... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8893 Richard Brewster 2010-12-15T14:31+00:00 I know grades can vary from week to week, but I can't imagine what conditions would allow this to go at iV. Seems like a bit of "old boys" talk to me. Whatever the grade, it's still got to... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10712 Huw Davies 2010-05-04T10:49+00:00 Some difficult short steps, we thought II 4 the day we did it! http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=9347 Huw Davies 2010-05-04T10:37+00:00 You climbed an unnamed chimney to the left of the ice smeer you described. Short Chute actually splits the buttress about 50m right of this point, although the new guide book describes it as you do,... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10654 Andy Stewart 2010-03-15T20:14+00:00 Felt like a sustained, technical 6, with gear not always easy to spot in a moss filled crack. I was glad of the cams I carried for the first time this winter! http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10223 Ray Cassidy 2010-02-21T21:35+00:00 Did this a couple of times in years past. Whole route first time and just the icy bits second time with a "keep the missus happy" zip round to the right of the mixed bits in upper half. ... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10616 Mandy Bennett4 2010-02-01T21:47+00:00 The crux crack aint too bad, its the 3rd pitch which gives the greatest difficulty. The groove offers very little in way of protection or pick/pon placements, top end IV or even a V http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10610 Mandy Bennett4 2010-02-01T21:44+00:00 found it quite a challenge with just enough protection. The hooks are there if you look but the placements for points were a bit sketchy. Getting into the cave gives welcome respite. I thought it... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8724 richard pyne 2010-01-29T21:15+00:00 I have done the V corner route several times over the last 3 years,and find that it can feel very balancy in lean conditions demanding pro,or,adversly,a gentle climb when stuffed with ice.III is a... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8842 shaun walby 2010-01-15T16:19+00:00 Climber this in perfect conditions, excellent venue and grade III http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8854 shaun walby 2010-01-15T16:14+00:00 My first winter route in the uk 1.1.2010, nice little ice bulge to begin then very easy to the top in powder snow http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8788 David Warburton 2010-01-04T14:02+00:00 Great route, a long day if going all the way to the top, but it is possible to drop off after the difficulties. Pitches here are wrong. I did 3 pitches to the halfheight 'col' and end of tricky... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8871 Andy Chadwick 2009-03-15T21:57+00:00 An excellent gully. Sustained but straightforward ice pitches, especially the top one which is brilliant. Also a lonely and atmospheric setting. http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=10206 Iain Thow 2009-02-21T13:40+00:00 Last week it was an easy snowslope (with a decent sized cornice), the week before it was just the snowslope, earlier in the season it had a couple of rock steps, but still only II max, I thought.... http://www.rockfax.com/databases/r.php?i=8870 Jim Croft 2009-02-10T13:52+00:00 I also agree with the previous comments. It was runout and scary and although my winter climbing experience runs to 3 NZ mountains and about 6 UK winter routes, I have 17yrs rockclimbing behind me....
