New Kentmere Circuit & Gaskins Link-Up

Written by LakesBloc Sunday, 01 June 2003 00:00

Early June saw more action in the Kentmere area with Greg Chapman developing the hillside opposite the Garburn Pass boulder. The Valley of the Kings, as it is now known, is a little esoteric in nature, but contains some excellent problems, including Cwrast The Ragged 6c+/V5, a technical bulge, and Tianglum 7c/V9, a super hard crack line near the top of the hill.

With little left for the Man of Steel to do (in the South Lakes at least), John Gaskins set to work extending Greg Chapmans excellent traverse Blood Sugar Sex Magic 7b+/V8, at Woodwell O`ert Road. John started sitting at Yes Minister, through Soda, reversed The Flying Finish and the Angel Deelite ramp into BSSM... nice one John. This is in the region of 7c+/V10 and has been named Hybrid Moments.
