Brilliant! A modern debauchery connecting a subtle line of ramps from the base of The Pillar to the stance on Original Route. Whilst no single move compares with Bastille's crux, the climbing is bold and sustained without the comfort of pegs or bolts to go for. Cool nerve and careful wire arrangement important. the crux pitch was led on three 9mm ropes to avoid dislodging important runners. [1]
