August 2009
A mix of yellow and black spotted holds and black and green spotted holds.
Black and green holds – Limestone edges and Thai Mondo jug mixture
Yellow and black holds – Big classic holds – small crimps, big slopers to big jugs
Tunnel section – Black and green spotted holds on less overhanging problems. Promotes balance and technical movement.
Main Room – Yellow and black holds. Bigger holds on more overhanging parts of the wall. Volume work included on some of the problems. Suitable for beginners. 2 technical problems on the slab.
New “Hard” Black Circuit V5-V7 added

August 2009
A big range of Fontainebleau creations from Bleaustone. Mini jugs, crimps, mondo jugs, edges, pinches, pockets, slopers, specials and screw-ons.
Very interesting problem on the slab. Big footholds and no handholds traversing across to a big boss. Big rock over move to finish. Great Jonny Dawes style problem.
Powerful arête slapping on big slopers and crimps. (James Gowdy Below)
Interesting problem in the cave might be a test for those shy on body tension. Requires good control to get to the second stage of the boulder problem. Then gets a little easier if you have any power left to finish.
In the tunnel area there is a good problem working in with two volumes. Hard to get this problem started with the awkward foot placements.
