 Spoke to Kris Clemow the other day at the Tor and he said it's a fine route

Spoke to Chris Plant last weekend who'd bolted it last century but never really tried it. kev took it over rebolted it and spent a couple of summers on it. By couple of summers you are realy talking about 6 or 7 weeks whilst dry.
Its not a bad line but is more bouldery than some of the other Cornice routes.
mind you having thought about it there are quite a few with distinct boulder problem cruxes. Ape Index ,Superfly to name a couple.
Good to see the crag back in favour this year, but I guess too wet now to do anything more.
back to my other boulder problem Mecca/Whore of babylon link 93 moves!!
