In reply to LakesWinter:
Ok, here's some Lakes routes with grades and comparable Scottish routes/grades next to them............
Garden of Eden, Green Gable Lakes III, Scottish IV 5, Harder than Pygmy Ridge, Fingers Ridge and other popular IV mixed routes.
Bottleneck Blues, Gable Crag, Lakes IV 4, Scottish IV+ 5
Raven Crag Gully Raven Crag Lakes III, Scottish IV 4, harder than Italian Right Hand but not as steep as the Curtain or tech 5 ice.
Chock Gully Lakes IV 4, Scottish IV 5 or 6. Very safe but very hard moves.
Great Gully, Wastwater Screes V 4 is fair for the right branch but the lower gully is a joke at grade III.
I gave up on Dove Crag Gully but it's way harder than the IV 4 in the guidebook.
The Lakes ones that are fair at the grade tend to be the very popular routes, like the Great End gullies and Red Tarn routes and popular water courses like Newlands Hause and Launchy Gill.
