The fun start

Description At the crags right end just left of a chimney the climb starts at a short overhanging right facing corner. Climb it and follow the line up left until you can exit up to a slab and trees. Rap w/one rope.
A fixed pin used on the FA may be gone.
Protection normal rack and a small tri-cam.
Fun climbing all the way.

| This was the first route on the cliff but Alan and I didn't feel we climbed the cliff proper. The second route on the cliff was Bombs Away which found the business.
So many of my routes have been retro bolted (w/out permission) I can't believe they missed this one! You have my permission. One of Rumney's best easy routes. |

| Tom, you are forgetting. You gave Ward, Smitty and I permission to retro all of your routes at Rumney as we thought necessary, years ago, back when you still climbed there more often. If you have changed your mind since, let us know, please |

| Mark,
My apologies. If only I had a memory. Though I don't remember saying that I probably did. No objections really.
