No, alang the top. Been a while, but was certainly sub-7. 6c?
Maybe you could upload some of your guides to the ukb wiki?I'll put the trav down as Lippy Traverse 6C (unless there are objections).
Drop me your e-mail via a PM and I'll send you the topo. Vimeo stopped allowing file attachments a while ago so nothing is online at present.
Oh the Wild, Wild MoorsEdwin WaughI.My heart's away in the lonely hills, Where I would gladly be—On the rolling ridge of Blackstone Edge, Where the wild wind whistles free!There oft in careless youth I roved, When summer days were fine;And the meanest flower of the heathery waste Delights this heart of mine! Oh, the lonely moors, the breezy moors, And the stormy hills so free; Oh, tits why these two bouldering mats, did I bring with me; Oh, for with this sail I blow everywhere, unless I doth tread carefully. Oh, the wild, wild moors; the wild, wild moors, The sweet wild moors for me.
I came in from the south - took 25 min each way and is a bit flatter though slightly boggier than the approach from the north. I think its probably 5 min longer..
Thanks. I'd be coming through Oldham/Denshaw so better than doing the extra mileage through Rochdale/Littleborough to get there.As you say it's a lung busting approach up the hill from the North, similar to Wimberry in a way.
