Title: Unknown traverse on Ramshaw’s Lower Tier
Post by: Eddies on June 14, 2007, 12:31:45 pm
Can anyone please tell me anything about this problem on Ramshaw’s lower tier?

(http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o104/eddoson1/RamshawTraverse.jpg)

It starts in the crack, traverses the lip leftwards to the arete and then finishes somehow!
A friend has told me there is a big rock-over to the left of the arete to finish.

There maybe a standing start version also, can anyone confirm these problems and at what grade they go at?

Yeah, that's right. from the apex of the lip reach up with your right hand for a small boss and your left out for another hold and rock up. It's probably about V2.

A harder traverse starts over down and left with hand holds near the floor and traverses up and around the lip of 'Titgrip' to join the other traverse and then reverse it to the crack, probably V9, with a stopper move in the middle after the lip of Titgrip.

Hope that a helps a little.
