New Routes alert!

Carreg Mianog, on the Carneddau side of Ogwen valley. From the aqueduct, go under the main crag and head up and right. Nice rock, if a little too compact for much protection away from the obvious cracks. 

The E1 was well scary, the gear in the top groove (massively foreshortened in the pic - honest) is rubbish.  

The central groove line will go - send a cheque for more information.

Save yourself the trouble of going to California to climb The Nose on El Capitan, this 1/100-scale replica awaits!
