The Reamer

Description

This route was reported in Neptune's book but not elsewhere I think.

To the left of Lichen to Like there is a large spike. This is the Reamer. The route goes to a stance atop this spike and - after placing a stopper blindly to protect the wildly committing moves - up to and over the bulge above.

I don't know whether this is an 's' or not because although the stopper is hard to place, and I am unsure of the size so I'm not guessing, it can be quite good. This section is quite reachy and thuggish.

I believe he did this in the late 80s or early 90s.

Protection

Wired stoppers & cams to 2", I think.
