All correct, but one mark still available for the route on 6c, and the bonus mark is still up for grabs on 6d. (The bonus is for the 'exact' route name).

[Fiend]

All correct, but one mark still available for the route on 6c, and the bonus mark is still up for grabs on 6d. (The bonus is for the 'exact' route name).

Hah! I did actually know that, but was taking the piss with my capitalisation, ooops 

[Fiend]

is 5C the Winking Man at Ramshaw and the bonus is difficult because you have to be old enough to know it pre-ban?

[Neil F]

It is Fiend.  But can you name the route?

BTW, did you know the Rice Kemper Evans quote, or did you Google it (if that is possible?).  I'm assuming the former......!

I've not marked your first batch of answers yet, because I can't open my answer Powerpoint, and I'm not sure about the Tremadog answer.

Bear with me....

[Stabbsy]

1) e) Jerry, that thing at Tremadog

I thought it was :-

1(d) Moffatt on Psyche 'n' Burn (that thing at Tremadog)
1(e) Moffatt on Verbal Abuse at the Tor

2(b) Neil Bentley
2(c) Peter Whittaker
2(d) Gary Gibson
2(e) Still working on it.

3(a) Our Father?

Missing route on 6(c) is Beau Geste.

[Fiend]

3A - Tom's Roof, Stoney??

6F - Michele Caminati??

8A - Cemetery Gates, The Cromlech
8C - Praying Mantis, Goat Crag
8E - DIY, Stanage

P.S. No I'm not that old....

P.P.S. Yes I know the RKE thing from the Stanage guide. American Vice Consul, bribed gamekeepers with booze, etc

[Fiend]

1C is annoying me, I've read it loads, and I've read the counter about some esoteric climb "there exists no pitch that is more in there" 

[Neil F]

1) e) Jerry, that thing at Tremadog

I thought it was :-

1(d) Moffatt on Psyche 'n' Burn (that thing at Tremadog)
1(e) Moffatt on Verbal Abuse at the Tor

2(b) Neil Bentley
2(c) Peter Whittaker
2(d) Gary Gibson
2(e) Still working on it.

3(a) Our Father?

Missing route on 6(c) is Beau Geste.

All correct, as are Fiend's below (except Tom's Roof, which is Our Father)

[Neil F]

1C is annoying me, I've read it loads, and I've read the counter about some esoteric climb "there exists no pitch that is more in there" 

It is the most out there pitch in the whole of....

....well, in the whole of the particular bit of the particular buttress it is situated on....

[Stabbsy]

2(e) Airlie Anderson

I think I've got the missing ones of 6 and 8 too, but need to give some other people a chance (and go climbing, if everywhere isn't soaked!).

[Neil F]

2(e) Airlie Anderson

I think I've got the missing ones of 6 and 8 too, but need to give some other people a chance (and go climbing, if everywhere isn't soaked!).

Correct with Airlie.  Glad you enjoyed the anagrams.  We've got some more coming up in Part 2 - anagrams of route names, some of which I was really quite proud of....!

Yes, it would be good to let others have a go.  Fiend did get a bit carried away....   

[Fiend]

Okay okay, it's not my fault no-one else is around!

1C Little Plum, Garage Buttress

[Neil F]

1C Little Plum, Garage Buttress

Yep

[duncan]

1C Little Plum, Garage Buttress

Yep

Objection your honour!

"No pitch exists that is more 'out there'" was coined by Mark Hudon to describe the roof pitch on The Salathe Wall in the article Long, Hard and Free. Jerry borrowed it, unconsciously or otherwise

Being in a position to compare El Cap. and Garage Buttress, I feel the original should stand.

[Neil F]

But in a Peak Area quiz Duncan?

Also, whilst Salathe headwall may have exposure and a nice view, can it really compare to the outlook across abandoned industrial wastelands and the roar of chavs on motorbikes as they howl up the A623.....?

[Fiend]

Very good 

[fried]

8D - T-rex

Thanks Neil.

[Neil F]

8D - T-rex

Thanks Neil.

One out of a possible two.

You're welcome 

Sorry Fiend has had most of the fun this time around.  Gra is going to post the next batch up sometime tomorrow - I'm afraid I don't have the technology - so hopefully others will have chance for a go.  I will ask him for an upload time and try to prewarn folk, but Sunday evening will hopefully be a time lots of people will be able to have a go.

Anyway, fear not - there are still a lot of questions to go.....

.....and I mean a lot.
