UKH Hills - 'Creeping Flesh'

Rockfax Description
The long line of weakness on the left of the face is a very difficult but high quality climb. The route has always been high in the grade, however since the demise of its protection pegs it may now be E6. Start on a raised ledge left of the largest arching overhang. Climb a thin crack and slab to meet the left-trending thin crack-line and better gear. Follow the line with difficulty all the way to the top. The final 4m is slightly loose. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The pegs have now been removed on creeping flesh (Oct 14) It has now been without them...It now offers a bolder proposition requiring a more sustained effort... For any aspirant leaders it should now be approached as hard E5 (E6?) 6b the crux is much bolder without its 2 pegs and more airtime awaits those who fluff it! A good stash of rps plus 3 sets of small to med nuts up to no6 are advised along with plenty of QD's (No cams needed) Stu

Muzza	28 Aug, 2019	Show βeta βeta: This route is pretty tough for E5; if it was hard for the grade with the top two pegs in it is quite possibly E6 in its current state. Natural gear is available but it is tenuous putting it in and clipping pegs would be a fair bit easier.	βeta?
