In reply to UKC/UKH Articles:
"The Art of Climbing Down Gracefully" is possibly my favourite mountaineering article. I have managed to apply almost all the techniques.
There are a few other Tom Patey routes within reach of a VF/Severe climber. Squareface would be the obvious one if you don't mind walking.
I would even go out on a limb and say a S climber with slab experience could second "Wrecker's Slab" without too much difficulty. It gets VS for long runouts and a few suspect holds but there's nothing actually hard.
