Iain Farrar has added a new slab problem between his two other ones up on a ledge at the rightward end of the main quarry. It’s between Boonapi and Marramunt, details of which are here: http://peakbouldering.info/boulders/39

Jump start from the right – left foot on good diagonal edge, jump for 2 reasonable edges and carry on up. Crux is getting to edge just below flake near top.

7b+ I think but could be 7c or 7b

Good work yoot

sounds good. is this the same slab thats listedd as a project/cleaned slab in the burbage millstone guide?

[Bonjoy]

That's the one

[Gritlad]

might have a look at this tomorrow. take it that its all clean? its a good looking slab anyway

[Bonjoy]

Should be clean, he did the FA on Weds. It’s pretty clean rock on that slab anyway.

One of these days, people will even go bouldering at Laurencefield.

The future is here.

Sounds like a good line. Iain would love Lancs.

[dave]

why, has he had his self-respect removed?

I realise it's the done thing to jest, but Lancs quarry lines are as good as Peak quarry lines. Same rock, same thing. Take the Wiltons - long dismissed as whack for bouldering, this year I did about 40 7's there. Some are crap, but some are brilliant. I enjoy esoterica, but I've also done enough Peak classics to know a decent problem.

People used to (maybe still do) scoff at bouldering in Peak quarries, but times are changing as the Iains of the world quest onwards.
