Bella Lugosi Slab
The top bolt belay for colosus wall that is common on many routes has been replaced. 10/06
Horse Latitudes F6a+***. Re-Equipped as a sports route with lower off.02/07
Bella Lugosi is Dead E1 **.
Alive and Kicking F6a.* Re-equipped as a sports route with lower off. 02/07 (Quite a long reach for the good hold at the top of the niche - If you can't reach; it feels a grade harder as the alternative hold is a poor pinchy thing a couple of inches lower down)
Catrin E2 5b. New route two bolts to the right of Alive and kicking finish up the last part of A & K. 03/07 (Felt more like 5C and a number of people I've spoken to agree) (Why trad grade for this and sport for the other two bolted lines? This seemed marginally the hardest so 6a+/6b. Straightforward to keep R of A&K at the top if you wish (runout if you don't use a bolt on A&K though): HaroldW)

The right hand nut on belay is very close to end of threads. If you are next up there I would suggest taking a spanner to tighten. Maybe a spanner is good addition to rack when climbing sports routes as found a few loose or missing nuts, I will in future!! 2/9/10

Did this today as a warm-up. Very nice climbing but the most ridiculous bolting - why purposely turn what is just a very nice sport 6a, which gives folk a good intro to some slightly harder slate moves, into a gripper clipper for shorties? - the bolt above the niche, just stupid. 'If you're gonna make a sport route, make a sport route' :)

Re the comment 'There is ok "slate" pro to make it safe enough and I think the bolts should be pulled.'
There may have been 'enough' before but the voting of the feet is clear enough. It's probably seen more traffic this year than it has since the FA. I know its 'purity' has been spoiled, but in a good way. Feel free to spurn the clips and leave it as an attractive accessible clip up, there's more than enough head trips left. |
