[Peak] [Rivelin Edge[Birch Party] 6C

No idea if it's been done before but today me and Tomtom did the right arete of the block to the left of birch buttress, right at the start of the crag. We thought probably 6C from a sitter, finishing more leftwards. Bloody camera ran out of battery before we did it :(


Climbs quite nicely and I used a heel.

Is this the little buttress down the slope a bit, near the stream? Pretty nice I thought and a tricky pull on with a nicely sculpted RH arete pinch and slap to a pocket. I finished slightly rightwards if I remember rightly, as direct was damp/dirty. Good effort cleaning it off. I think it had been done a while ago, or at least cleaned, as someone had clearly hacked some ivy off.
There is a little unclimbed lip traverse around there somewhere too that may be worth a look.

Yep that's the place.
Nice rock and nice setting by the stream
