Glad I didn't have to lead out of the letterbox as my fingers were numb.
Loved it. We couldn't find the last bit to the top however. Descent on climbing shoes not recommended. I left my mountaineering boots at the start of the route. But couldn't find them on the way back. The walk back to the bivy was painfull.
A magnificent classic and much the better for the very limited amount of in situ gear on the route. Lovely climbing on excellent rock
