Best Route Ever

Description

"Best Route Ever" is what the late great Dave Pegg would express after any new route he had completed once returning home! Fun mixed route! Early on in the pitch there are a couple of bolts that were placed. Falling onto trad gear there would explode the flake making the route unclimbable.

The route was put up ground up, in my personal opinion going ground up on mixed routes tends to make for a better flow to the route! Half way up the pitch after a short hands section we busted right do to rock quality in the bulge. Higher up on the pitch a super fun slanting tips crack is encountered. We did not clean out right of this system FYI. This pitch is 30 meters on the nose , don't use a short 60meter rope!

Location

"B R E " begins on the top of "Points West". From the top of "Points West " head up and right towards a left facing corner.
