Jon on Low Rider - how hard does this look  :shock:


Jon on Pet Lamb:

[dave]

I eyed up that incursion traverse/prow a while ago, never tried it, obviously too hard, glad to see someone had the substance to live the dream.

[Bubba]

Is there much bouldering up the left end of Stanage? I've not been up there for years.

[chris]

where is this problem? how far left?

[Bubba]

Not entirely sure - the descs that Jon sent refer to the routes Chip Shop Brawl, Serenata and High Flyer, if that's any help?

Not got a routes guide myself so no idea.

[dave]

High Flyer (a cracking E4 solo) and Incursion (classic bold E1 slab) are on End slab, the extreme north of stanage.

[Bubba]

Ah yes, I've done a bit of soloing around there in the dim distant past - reckon there's much else to be done up there?

[dave]

Dunno, probably for the determined, although the lip traverse is by far the most obvious thing i can remember.

[Bubba]

for the determined

i.e. Shite  

[dave]

You read my mind.

It seems Kim was beaten to Pet Lamb by John Welford who called it Mother's Pride and gave it V9 (maybe it was a hot day). One awesome line is still up for grabs on the Mother's Pet for anyone good on undercuts and pebbles. If John thought Mother's Pride was v9 that means Pet Cemetery must be v9 too as its a bit harder, or maybe they are both V8+ :? . Please someone go and repeat them and tell me what you think.

[Bubba]

Have corrected this in the problems database - put it V8+ for now.
