How about a reverse of the full Virgin Traverse into Cherry Falls?

I thought exactly the same thing, a proper challenge.

or downclimb hymen and then do it.

It's a much better problem than the silly full traverse of the whole boulder that's in the guide, that involves down climbing the arete! Virgin Trav finishes on the starting holds of Dick Hymen, finishing up that is a much better finish than the shitty low level extension IMO

I really liked it actually. Good dynamic problems and the rock is much better than rumoured. Id go back definately  :)

Yeah - the lines felt like lines-  rather than some of the more contrived offerings at some peak venue's.... theres scope for more new stuff there too I suspect..

Nice little vid nathan - sums up the problems there well.  I enjoyed a day there recently too, really nice spot.  I'd go along with the comments that the problems are as good as any of their grade on peak lime really. 
Didn't get up Conie Island Elephant though - hard throw move for 7a+ on that one!

Yeh - youre not wrong. seemed harder than the other ones. Brilliant place though. In the scheme of things some of the best "low grade" problms on peak lime.

I'm amazed (and actually pleased) that venues like this have been overlooked in the peak until now.

Only just getting started on videoing stuff and it seemed like the best place to video this problem from was in the middle of the road, so it's all round not great.

Anyway, Diane on Jerry's Traverse @ Sean's Roof, or What Would Jerry Do? as it is called in the new guide.

The angle's good, try to pan a little smoother though- were you using a tripod? Also, don't be afraid to shout at the spotter to move out of the way of the camera!

It was fairly steady for hand-held! If you walk gently you can get some good panning effects as well as getting a better angle, which is always useful on a long problem like this.

These recent vids are all well and good, but where's the footage showing us how they drove to the crag and what they cooked for breakfast - and not one bit of slackline action. Very unprofessional.

How come you have 7a+ on the vid when you voted 7b on YG?

Looks good though.

Nice sheep, could this be a suitable replacement for driving to the crag?
