Is Mars Attacks the name of the crag, too? It looks like a good page, but it's written up like a route page and I'm wondering why it wasn't submitted as one. Cheers.
Well Mars Attacks is the name of the this whole climb. Its a 4 pitch route on the Fin, however, it is almost completely separate because you don't top out on the fin and the route is on its own distinct section of the wall. That was my resasoning for making it a mtn/rock. I might change it though
That just confirms my thinking that it should be a route page. Is there a page for the Fin? If not, I think making one for it and having this and a page for the route(s) to the top of it would make sense.
Oh, I see there is a page, maintained by a guy whose pages aren't very good and who has proved resistant to improving them or letting people adopt them. Any interest in adopting it? I'm sure you would do a good job with it, and I can erase the negative comments and votes so they're not attributed to you.
I guess thats part of the reason. I haven't ever actually topped out on top of the Fin so I don't think I should have it. I could do a good enough job with it though. I think he has the page for Queen Victoria Spire. I could easily take that one over along with the route page
It's a different owner I was thinking of, but Queen Victoria is weak, too, so I've transferred it to you. After you update it, let me know and I can erase those low votes that really drag down the page score.
Great pics here, and a solid description. However you should know that this route isn't on the Fin that's described on the main page. The confusion is probably because there's more than one peak that people sometimes call "the Fin." This page is about another peak (UN 5667, about two miles ESE). The route you detail is on UN 5906. Confusing enough?
