UKH Hills - Western Peak Grit 100 VD

Contributed by Paul Hy Aug/11 - This public hilllist has been seen 8,522 times

At the moment VS is my lead limit and Diff too easy, so this list of 100 is a goal to get. Most have stars or have been recommended to me. There must also be new(ish) climbers out there who are of this standard.
