8m. A desperate route up the centre of the slab above the runnel which has some unusual moves and is easier for the tall. No handholds on the pebble-less slab result in several rock-overs which require timed momentum from the previous rock-over to enable a foot to be placed higher - ultimate Dawes. Spotters and padding make this relatively safe, but it is graded for neither.
I've always enjoyed the railway slab (4ish? problems up to V3).
Those two snaps are great. It must be a hundred years old (?) The trees and ground line speak volumes.
does anyone know about his non-stick vicar, below fun traverse at Black Rocks. That looks amazing.

Non-Stick Vicar E3 6c/7b+/c? (long thought to have shed a hold, but nearly repeated by Keenus on a very warm day recently, the right arete is not used at that grade in case you wondered...
