Lieve Tina – V Diff – Lead

Its been a while since I was at Butter Hole. Dave and I had spent many evenings here exploring and getting to know the lie of the land. This was more of a scouting trip, but we ended up on a cracking V Diff, which as seems in keeping with climbs recently, wasn’t really a V Diff.

It comes into Little Roberts top slab from the right facing in. It doesn’t look much, but there is a mantle onto a boulder just before the slab which is quite tough and I recon probably around 4a. It all seems a bit more than V Diff, but thats in keeping with the under grading at Butter Hole.

Still a beautiful place. Tom has a stake which we will bring next time so that we can get into the climbs in the hidden amphitheatre.
