I was there when Johnny Dawes, Paul Pritchard and Ben Moon first did it in 1979 (I think it was) [sic. actually 1989]. The midges and mosquitos at the time were absolutely appalling, and we were all using an extremely potent Chinese repellent called ‘Moskil’. After they’d done the route we were all trying to think of a name, and I said the whole crag was a bit like Scafell Crag tipped outwards, and that the route they’d done was like an overhanging Moss Ghyll Grooves. And then I said, ‘Oh my god - Moskil Grooves!!' [1]
