Jon Bassindale and Dave Farquar have developed a smart ‘new’ wall in Kentmere. Despite the slog to reach the new sector, which overlooks the Garburn Pass a short distance up the hill from Little Font, it hosts 7 or 8 fine, tall problems on decent rock.
All first ascents are by Jon, with the exception of Grooverobber, a superb and committing 7A+/B up the central groove line. This was first climbed by Dave Farquhar. Photo below.
This wall gets a mention in the forthcoming guidebook, although unfortunately I didn’t have space to include a definitive write up. For Jon’s topo to the all the climbing, click the following link or head over to the Guides page of the site: Yertis Wall Topo.
