Gobsmacking Wall new routes
To add to Chebacca and the retro'ing of the old classics "Sacrificial Lamb" and "Monkey Lust", are 2 new pitches:
Crosseyed 10c Start up the obvious chimney 5.8 just right of Sacrificial Lamb and pull out of it into the hand crack (crux) which crosses Sacrificial Lamb and leads towards a small ledge and 2 bolt anchor (Monkey Lust). Clip the anchor and continue up the second pitch of Monkey Lust through the roof (second crux) which is easier than it looks. Beware getting your rope caught in the lip of the roof - use a cam to block it. An awesome 40m pitch. FA Andre Ike/Colin Moorhead
Hungry Ike 11b Start up Crosseyed but when you reach the small ledge, clip a bolt at the overlap and make some powerful moves past it to gain the base of the roof (green bd cam). Traverse under the roof to the right (red bd cam) to the anchor of Sacrificial Lamb. 30m (if belayed from log at top of fixed line). FA Andre Ike/Colin Moorhead
