Daisy from Concrete...
« on: August 31, 2007, 08:32:44 pm »
Hi guys - just a bit of news.  I got my project in the cave done today (hurrah)!  Sit start to Clever Beaver (crescent hold/proper low) into East Coker.  This is dead cool, 22 moves, and yes, I was battleing with gravity on the final moves to the finishing jug.  I think it's probably V13/font 8b, although there is the usual 'could be wrong' - who knows?  Anyhow, its called 'Daisy from Concrete', - you can work that one out for yourselves I'm sure.  Tally ho, I'm off to share the evening with a nice single malt (Sloper, your probably there already, with slippers on (ha ha)!). :beer1:
I'll take 8c+ for anything.

Good effort Chris. So much potential is such a small place. I'm sure one of the potential cave kings will be trying to repeat it soon enough...

Effort! I thought East Coker was V14 though? So a link into it would surely be harder?

Look Adam, who's more likely to know who did the first ascent, the fist ascentionist or Brian McAlinden?  ;)
