Climber Style Ascent Date Suggested Grade

Calum tried the line prior to the first ascent but wasn't able to seal the deal.
First ascent.

Just before setting off for a lead go I received a txt off Calum saying it would be nice if I gave him a week to attempt it before trying it. Not feeling (nice) like I had as much time as a young man to keep returning I replied an ascent was unlikely as I'd bust my tip and felt the climbing was tricky. It was however too fun not to try.
