Title: New Link at Malham
Post by: Tim Broughtonshaw on October 14, 2009, 08:40:16 am

Yo,

Ste Crowe did effectively totally free but with breach of the peace as the top yesterday. (the groove + free and easy + breach of the peace). An awesome position but with no half height belayer and an 80M rope the drag looked a tough proposition. 

Don't think he has settled for a name yet on the link, he had a couple of ideas.

An awesome achievement.

Cheers
Tim

Effort Steve!  sounds like a monster.  Is the Breach roof quite near the top of free and easy?

Good Effort!

At last the Groove becomes a more appealing proposition without the insitu Geordie and Toprope ;)
