[Peak][Blackwell Dale][Blackwell Scoop 7A+]

The obvious highball scoop, downhill and over the little wall from the Black & Decker buttress. A bit reachy at the start, but good moves and a contrast to everything else at the crag
It's a bit high but the landing is nice and flat, 3 pads and a spotter is fine

Is it before or after the black sack crack area?

Is that where you did those new problems? It's just before that.
I get confused by all the 'black something-or-other' names, hence the boring descriptive name

I clawed my way to the top of this today! Unfourtunatly  the next person pulled the crimp next to the gaston off and it exploded into about a million pieces.  Will still go i think but from the left instead.  Taking the gaston as a sidpull instead.
