Turned up to play on Marks Roof at Gardoms today.

Was chatting to a fellow climber about the direct exit to the right.

Has anyone done it through the slopey crimps on the face?
One looked fairly clean, and the other slightly to its right is the bottom of the carved C in the rock.

Would have to be sans arete (sorry Dylan), but looks like a go-er.

Anyone know of anyone who has tried it?

Cheers

Neither Mark's Roof Direct nor the strict version of Dylan's Roof use the arête. Incredibly crap video of MRD here

R-man's correct.....I did it with and without the arete starting as for Mark's roof and also directly (though very dirty and shit) and just on the arete

Cheers gents.
Ukc description is what lead me to think of the version going with the arete is your one.

I was just a little confused by the combination of guide-book descriptions and previous topics on the board, non of which mention the slopey crimps. I can see where i am wrong now.

Thanks again.
