Ryan does Stanage arete

I'm surprised this hasn't had more of a mention. On Saturday Ryan Pasquill put up a new arete problem above Stanage Plantation. It's a thing I spied a while back about 15m right of Hathersage Trip, left of National Breakdown. It had a death landing down a pretty high gully which we patioed to make it feasible if still a little spooky. Since then I've been up there with various folk. A strong team including Ned, Gaz Parry and Mike Adams all had a go on Sat and eventually Ryan did the deed with Mike getting the second ascent a bit later. No name was offered. Vague mutterings of 7b+/7c were heard. Here's a couple of pics

You're weren't the only one! Surprised it went at such a reasonable grade.
