Four I think. Plus 'Supercrag'.

Can it be a coincidence that Loch Maree is both wedge-shaped and pegbolt-shaped?
What/where is Supercrag? Not the big seacliff near Lochinver surely?

Yep. Loch Maree. I think they were just jokey nicknames for crags Ian Taylor was developing but it turns out both Creag Rodha Mor and Loch Maree sport wall were so good they lived up to the nickname and they kinda stuck.

It's just as well 'supercrag' has only been applied to these unusually late discoveries, otherwise it would be very, very confusing.

There's always 'super' routes too. Super Pittance. Super Warm Up. Classics.
