Woodwell Carnage
July 17, 2016, 11:46:36 am
Just been Tom's Buttress and basically the whole left hand section has fallen down from What's This For leftward and including the aptly named Art of Self Destruction. Looks like trees roots have gotten in behind and pried it off over time.
Good news is that there's some hard projects for anyone brave enough! Will try to post pics later.

Holy hell. I've been there a few times recently to try finish something off on that buttress and it's been wet for weeks. Mixed feelings of being gutted I'll have to cross it off my ticklist and grateful that I wasn't underneath it. I'm intrigued to see what's left behind.

At least what I've done there can't be downgraded

That'll be what did it. Bloody kids.

Sounds like a higher power at work here. The spirit of Gaskins works in mysterious ways!

Keen to see what's left! Always meant to go back and do that crap looking campus across crimps problem to arbitrary finish.

Shit me. It was a tossup whether we were stopping at Woodwell on Saturday afternoon on the way up, looks like either A a lucky escape there, or B missed my chance to try Art of Self Destruction.

Apparently Markus Bock was seen in the area with a big crow bar.

This was taken last month. Maybe it was a good thing I was injured and couldn't climb, as I may have pulled it down!

Look at those tree roots. Hanging in space with no more little crevices to burrow into. Bet they don't feel so clever now, do they? Tree root twats.

Looks quite repairable though... Bit of sika, couple of props, jobs a good un.

some local classics/nemeses gone. I once injured a pulley on a family walk there, deadhanging the Art of Self Destruction crimps without warming up, happy days
