Pool of Bethesda | 8A+ Boulder problem at the Cromlech Boulders

United Kingdom / Wales / Gwynedd / Caernarfon

Also known as Porthole Problem. See also Pool of Bethesda (Malc's Start) and Pool of Bethesda (Skindog Start).

A Jerry Moffatt project, featuring one of the hardest moves around at the time, it succumbed to the mighty strength of Paul Higginson. Less powerful sequences now exist.
