* Do some remaining routes in Gordale, Pierrepoint, Perfect Mirage (?)
- climb something The Oak at Malham
- tick 5 problems off the “why have you still not done these yet?” list- put in 5 sessions on a good 8A+/B- tick 5 problems off the board list- climb something at Malham- 5 sec one arm hang the BM 10’s
I like this list. Do you think the 10's are actually any harder than BM2K bottom (or top on 1k)? They feel similar in difficulty, just more painful.

it originally read- go to Malham oncewhich is literally all I plan to do. But I thought I might as well try to redpoint one of the warm ups, so I amended it accordingly.
Do a really good first 7c. A proper belter. Hopefully New Dawn or Dominatrix.Depending on how that goes, do a first 7c+.I'll make a proper list closer to the time, but off the top of my head it would be great to do:New Dawn, Space Race, Dominatrix, Vorsprung, Smouldering Globules, Illywacker, Sunset Boulevard, Comedy,

Thought The Perfect Mirage (TPM!) was great, as good as Defcon in my opinion (possibly slightly biased since the process and grade added to it for me), see my best of 2018 entry. Cement Garden is also great if you haven't done it...
Cheers Ian, I've done Defcon but not the others. Two questions: what is the rock quality like, and does reach make a big difference on these routes?
Perhaps I should put New Dawn on if it's so good, always thought the Peak had the 7c jewel in Too Old Too Be Bold but I'm prepared to be proved wrong
Quite simple for me, 3 x new 7a problems outside.

5. A classic Pembroke E5 (Wall of Prey would be even better).7. RP 7b+ (The Jimi Hendrix Experience?). Finish the job on Empire... and Paradise Lost.
