That cave looks fuckin meaty!
I've always been encouraged and inspired by the likes of Keith Sharples climbing pretty hard in their fifties (8b etc..). This however takes it to a whole new level! There's hope for us all!

For me anything that is just off the floor is bouldering, an Font 8b+/8c isn't a bad consolation prize for Malc.

Really? I have never heard this mentioned before?

I'd give 9a to anyone who's climbed Hubble the hard way.

 Did Cubitt do Evolution? don't think he did. he did Mecca Extension though.
Is Hubble the hard way doing it without Dave Grahams kneebar?

I meant the Steve dunning really tall way: so every other ascent is the hard way.
