what a beautiful photograph

Excellent climbing photos Emma. Not enough good rockclimbing pics on here recently. Have a 5!

Thank you :-) how kind to make such flattering comments - I think this route so deserves some attention..one of my Pemby favourites and its surprising how few climbers seem to know about it!

Good photo and good route, but unless we went wrong somewhere, I thought the crux was gong through the roof above the slab.

Yes the roof bit is certainly tricky, but it all depends where you go on the slab section as to how hard it feels - its easy to pick about 3 different lines which seem to range from 5b-6a! Glad to hear it is getting done :-)

What buttress is it on? Doesn't seem to be in the database.

You can find it in the new guidebook here http://www.climbers-club.co.uk/guidebooks/ci-wales-pembroke-5.html although it is quite an old route - I am not a moderator for this crag (am pretty busy moderating many others) and the database is only as up to date as climbers have time to make it! When I get a spare moment..I will help to update all these crags on the database! There are loads of great routes out there in the definitive guidebooks :-)

Sorry - meant to say its at Giltar Walls, just west of Giltar Slabs in the Penally Area..!
