Climbed this with Caff a few weeks ago. A pumpy little number. The first half getting to the pegs on ME is really blind and the description should probably say climb the initial groove high, blindly pulling up to good holds. Squirm along a ledge before dropping down to the pegs from directly above not by a horizontal traverse. It did take me numerous journeys to discover this, by which time my arms were a tad weary and i fell off the "easy moves" of ME, which for anyone who has not climbed ME, are the crux! The gear is really good on this section though the pegs on ME are pretty shoddy. Caff bless him then pulled the ropes and led the whole pitch. A pretty awesome effort. Possibly the most extended ive seen him for a few years. The final groove is definately the crux, on crappy rock with shoddy gear. Thank f**k i fell when i did!
