Cheesedale

Some of the biggest rooves you will ever see. L side Cheesedale overhangs by perhaps 25m (and has all Steve Bullens mega hard bouldering under it), and is only 15-20m high! That's steep. Has some good hard routes, but nothing under 20, and nothing under vertical! From South Central, keep walking N, then downhill, and then upstream to the cliff.

Steaming Grunder 10m 22 (L)
Desperate. Horribly thin for the first half, then more simple. Bring spotters.

** Wham Bam Thankyou Ma’am 12m 24 (RP)
Awesome, and my 2nd ever 24 redpoint. Lots of big holds and big moves, and around 7m overhung. The crux is past the 2nd RB - a sneaky R heelhook gets you statically to an ok flat R hand, then jugs all the way home. A great route.

** Squeeze Me Hard 10m 20 (OS)
OK if you’re 5’11” or more! Preclip first, then from R hand sidepull, lean up L to sloper, then pop again to L hand jug, with ridiculously crappy feet. On to R hand pinch, and jugs on break. Up to 3rd FH, and a nice undercling move to gain jugs through overlap, and on to U anchor.

Uncertainty Pleasure 8m 22 (OS)
Not 2 stars. Yes roofs are fun, but not when the rock is this shit! A big jug haul, with some of the buckets easily capable of devouring feet. If they don't snap off.
