UKH Hills - 'Fallen Angel'

Rockfax Description
A classy line and one of the toughest Lakeland E4s. The rock, line and gear are all there but the unusual style of climbing has been the undoing of many. Traverse left from East Gully to below the flared, deep-set curving groove and belay here.
Move up to below the flared groove. Climb it to where it constricts and make cramped moves to exit onto a slab. Move up right to a crack and take this until another crack on the right is reached and climbed to a big flat-topped ledge. Finish up a groove on the left passing an overhang. © Rockfax

Andy Stewart2	6 Jul, 2019	Show βeta βeta: Wet in the groove at the crux from seepage, despite a dry spell. This wasn't apparent from below. Made this route utterly nails; fell off a couple of times before giving up trying to avoid the wet holds. With the wisdom of hindsight I would recommend two things. Firstly, best with no gear on the back of your harness as this route required udging up the pod , rather than the delicate bridging I'd hoped for. Secondly, I would do Astra as a warm up and from the rap station at the top of pitch 2 head straight down the line of Fallen Angel to check whether it's dry.	βeta?
