I had a meeting in Matlock on Wednesday so I took the opportunity to visit Jackson Tor afterwards. It’s been a good few years since I’ve climbed here and I must say it was a lot tidier than 15 years or so ago, a big thank you to those involved in the tidy up
Any way I did the usual circuit and then had a go at a problem I’d tried in the past. The wall is mentioned in the BMC guide as having possibilities for harder bouldering and the double page spread at the start of the Beeley-Matlock chapter shows the wall in question. The problem climbs the steep wall left of The Arete, starting at the right hand end of the ramp, I’m sure it’s been done before but felt it worth flagging up as it’s a nice addition to the already documented problems.
