Second ascent.

I had to use a different sequence to John's original high step method - I could get my foot up, but couldn't move. My sequence dyno's (thanks to Chris Davies for sewing that seed) the move from the crozzley ?crumpet? hold (left hand), a small two finger crimp (right hand) and goodish but inconveniently placed/angled foothold. Still felt pretty hard and I think I was lucky that the move suited me, this is certainly not my usual level of climbing and as such I have no idea of what the grade would be for my sequence... it's at least English 6c.
