Exactly one week after ticking 'Torture Board', and a matter of a few days after 'Dawes Rides a Shovelhead' (see below post), George Ullrich was up at Pavey Ark, Langdale - the camera was rolling (ooh cliche) and the weather was reaching the end of the spell of perfection.
Having spent the previous day on the shunt trying this line, he managed to link it just before being benighted.
The lead seemed to go pretty well. A truly inspiring line in the bag. Impact Day E8/9 6c - Pavey Ark - F.A Dave Birkett 1999.
The penultimate move on Impact Day involves this horrendous mono and a big reach to a crimpy edge. Urghh.
Crux reach on Impact Day (comes with free power scream)
So, in exactly a week, that's:
- Torture Board E7 6c - Reecastle
- Dawes Rides A Shovelhead E8 6c - Raven Crag
- Impact Day E8/9 6c - Pavey Ark
- 1 sheep that fell off the top of Pavey Ark, hit the floor and exploded on impact, landing about 4 metres away from a very lucky climber
- 2 trips in 2 days of the path up to Pavey with a whole lot of camera & rigging kit - sore legs after that one!
And all of it was caught on film (except the sheep incident and the slog up the hill). Keep checking back for previews etc.
