New E9 at Wimberry
September 25, 2013, 08:54:51 am
Last Friday Nathan Lee of the Lee dynasty completed his project, putting up the first ascent of 'unknown stones'. It takes the blank space between appointment with fear and appointment with death at a grade of "at least E9 6c", good going Nat!

Holy crap, that's ace! Looks a lot scarier than AwD, if such a thing is possible.

Good effort, shame to miss another opportunity to use the name 'Appointment with Jeff' though...

I did suggest he do this but he just grumbled something about everyone being a set of c*nts and knocked my pint over*
