[Peak][Higgar Tor][Captain Thugwash][7b]
June 04, 2013, 11:07:53 pm
Huggy roof/ prow  on buttress to the right of 'Green fingers 6b+' and below 'stinky piss wall 6a'
Upside down fridge hugging problem i.e heels and beef required.
Starts on obvious undercut with right hand on right of the roof, and left hand in a niche on the opposite side of the roof. Get heels on and make some fairly strenuous slaps up the prow(some decent edges to use), to reach jugs in the break then up to more jugs above.
Felt 7b but might be easier when cleaner.
Cofe has a pic of Dave P on it.
It looks 'a bit Yorkshire' to quote Dave, but climbs very well and is a worthwhile burly addition to the circuit.

It's bigger than it looks in the pic. A good addition to the Higgar circuit.
