Prone to dampness and vegetation, it was cleaned from abseil prior to the first ascent, an unusual practice for the time. ### References [1] [https://climbing-history.org/library/7288/llanberis-pass](https://climbing-history.org/library/7288/llanberis-pass)

The second of the three big corners of [Dinas Cromlech](/crag/4/dinas-cromlech) to be climbed. Prone to dampness and vegetation, it was cleaned from abseil prior to the first ascent, an unusual practice for the time. > Operation Garden was commenced on Ivy Sepulchre, PJRH abseiling down complete with trowel etc. The top 60' were found to be climbable, involving an all-in wrestling match with a rotten holly tree which, despite its age, still knows how to deal with would-be climbers. ### References [1] [https://climbing-history.org/library/7288/llanberis-pass](https://climbing-history.org/library/7288/llanberis-pass)
