2 | 2Let Me Up, 22 | 22 | 15m | 3 | ||
A classic route with beautiful moves, climbing the right side of the prow. Originally a top-rope problem, Richard Thomson hand-drilled a bolt in 1988 and climbed the route with natural gear (finishing out left on the edge of the arete) – and a rest later eliminated by Roger Parkyn who named the route Padded Cell. Retrobolted, reclimbed and renamed by Richard Thomson in 2001. |
