CB follows making use of some techniques from the toolbox.
Plenty more where they came from.
Whilst we are in the neighbourhood there are more stars to collect on adjacent routes.
AT on Wolf Wall - a long reach comes in handy and the red BD cam pops in just right
L - Woodpecker Wall
R - Romulus
BP at the same spot from the other side
From here a handrail leads right to a reachy skittery finish

CB seconds BP's lead on Drunken Buttress

AT nails the opening moves on the next lead.

BP romps out
An archetypal Autumn day on the moors
CB on Pet's Corner Arete
It's that Red BD again!
