first face update

Postby Rich » Mon Dec 05, 2011 8:08 pm

The "open project" at first face (at the far left end of the crag) was climbed by myself and Cassidy a few weeks ago - currently has 2 bolts but I'll add another before spring to replace the fiddly and manky gear that can be found between the existing bolts.

The line starts up fractured blocks (but solid for the most part) and goes through the corner system to the left of Four Minute Smiler - rock quality improves with height as does steepness, and it ends through the slightly overhanging dihedral with great exposure. Will be a "G" route with extra bolt and a bit of complementary gear. "Endorphinator" (10b/c) - worth getting on.

cheers

Nice Rich. The drill is residing at Ground Zero right now and should be there for a while.
