L1 - Knockin On Heavens Door,
L3 - Avalanche, Kinder?
L5 :
Cornice Chee - River
Cornice WCJ - Welfare State
Staden - Road?

L12 - Litton Mill
L13 - Moat Buttress
L14 - Its not Power Plant (and its not the cornice? Or its Not Jean-Minh??)
G1 - DABC
G3 - Short Fat Bar Star, and it starts half way up the crag on the route to the right and traverses in
G4 - One of them probably didn't use a bolt for protection on the first ascent. Not Plague, Not WSC, so um.. War of the Roses?

Did think that might have been MaccyD

 

[SamT]

G18 - whats the craic there.. did you just forget to cover the problem name, or is it a trick in some way, pretty sure its Tierdrop, but is it not Sam??

 

[SamT]

Correction, I got the G1 the wrong way round..
CBAD

 

[nik at work]

G18 is Neil Travers I think

 

[nik at work]

It’s Dense.

 

[SamT]

Sorry I mean G11 Tierdrop, Neil Travers…

Ah yes. Was there a Chris Wright of that era who was red haired and looked a bit like Neil?

 

[andy popp]

Yes.

I can't get the quiz to open though?
