Fast Cars and Camper Vans

Written by LakesBloc Friday, 17 February 2006 00:00

Keith Cheverst has climbed a good looking new line at Carrock Fell. The problem - Fast Cars and Camper Vans - is located on the Boardmans Boulder at The Northern Group sector of the venue. The line starts from standing on an obvious good jug (for both hands), on the far right side of the front face. Then traverses rightward on a hanging ramp feature (nice slopers) until you get to a good jug for your right hand, at which point you rock up on your left foot for a huge shelf and onto the top.

UPDATE: 20th Feb: We have had a report that this line had been climbed a few months previous to Keith's ascent by Nick Halbert, at 7a/V6. The same line was also extended on around the corner and up the vertical face on small crimps, this variation was apparently climbed by Matthew Chapman, this goes at around the 7b/V8 mark.
