I cannot believe I have let such a fine boulder miss my attention. Went for a wander yesterday and was rewarded. Arguably the best v6 at the Roaches on the arete of the boulder below the Fourth Cloud. Go and enjoy.

That boulder does look waddish, the rock is minted. Big shout out to Finger of Fate as a class highball in the area.

Ms Fiend very nearly did that one - she's a VS climber (just like me hohoho) and scared of bouldering. She's gotta go and do it this winter!!
