Pete Whittaker Instagram – This location and these roof cracks never disappoint. The moves on these routes are never that hard, but they’re often long and provide great endurance challenges, which is perfect onsight attempt territory, even on the harder grades.
Although @tompaulrandall and I spent a whole month long trip dedicated to checking out caves and roof cracks in this area, it still always excites me to recast an eye into the interesting caves we never got round to.
Having spent a lot of time here now it feels as though Tom and I picked the attainable big cherries, but…there are for sure still many smaller and possibly more difficult belters to be had. Infact, what am I saying? There are still huge cracks out there, but you might want to pitch those 😉 we called it good at a 100m roof pitch.
@mariaugustahs and I had the chance to jointly develop 3 new routes here over the last 3 days, which provided sizes from Hands to Chicken Wing
