Good stuff. Did you do the wall with the monos just right of the rib? Its got a big move leaving the last mono to tiny crimps then a slap to the top of the wall.

I intially tried the 6b+ rib thing (in one of the photos above) with blinkers on and thought it harder than the wall with monos next to it! Use everything and it's a peach too.Has anyone done the full traverse?Good stuff. Did you do the wall with the monos just right of the rib?

I'm sure someone with time on their hands has done it but no-one has owned up to it yet (I know that Mr Popp has done bits of it and rated it). I keep meaning to try it.

Might scrape 7A?

I had a quick visit yesterday morning. Much of the crag is damp and greasy, only a few problems are dry, though someone has obviously tried to take care of this with VERY excessive chalk use, i.e. wack your chalk-ball at every hold before using. I didn't have a brush with me so couldn't clean up that mess (or my own tick marks )I think with todays minging misty weather it'll be a fair while until it's dry again?
I hear what you're saying JB, but I've noticed the same thing even after days of dry weather.
Ben:
Just got a text from tomtom - he is at Harmer's now. He says it's dry, not 100% bone dry but good enough...
