Do you know about the history of Blackhead btw? Can you ask Streaky if not? I think he did it with the bolt hole - I've got Doug Shepherd written down somewhere for an ascent without but he might be a giant? Anyhow - a superb 7b/+ morpho highball which probably deserves inclusion.
Where is Blackhead? Highball 7b is probably a bit rich for my blood... but if it's a bit morpho I'd like to give it a look.
A heads-up when you post any beta / photo's for Fieldside normal would be much appreciated too - I've long intended to make it a project but can't figure it out (dropping down to the low shelf near the start etc?). By any chance was Wayne Fontana partially motivated by a desire to avoid any risk of flying off into the tremendous cowshit/bog entity under the arete!
Looks sweet, has the reprobate got a car yet or is he still scrounging lifts?
Think I might have done this as a dyno not being able to span between the undercut and the good hold, although my knowledge of black wall is not as good as that of the rest of the cliff, so perhaps the tight crop and odd angle are throwing me off...
Still scrounging...when you back from midge heaven?
The Thompson's up your way this week - running the ridge whilst holding his breath - say hello from me
there's blue sky everywhere but for some reason the mountains are covered in cloud...
is that the one next to Wall of Horrors?
Nice vid. Where does making shapes finish Andy? Do you use the pockets at the top of Pistol Whip or go out right?
So MS starts as for Pistol whip moves right and gets the pocket in your left? How hard is it?
It's hard, yet I'd expect JB to walk up it.
