13 Pitches. The route follows the striking shoot or ‘white stripe’ of a slip, visible from Chasm Crag carpark, to the right of the Charismatic Wall off of Pk 1665. They only placed two bolts on lead to protect the second pitch, where there was insufficient natural protection, and about five more bolts on the descent for rappelling. 7 Nation Army starts up vegetated slabs with no natural protection, but as Charlie and Mike climbed higher, the rock quality improved to a sharper white quartzite with good edges. | |||||||||||
