New Routes by Crag ~ Blacknor North

Route Name Grade First Ascentionist Description Date Climbed
The Taylor Show F6a Steve Taylor and Rob Kennard The crackline and groove right of 'Quakin' in my Bones'. An initially dirty section(which should clean up with subsequent ascents) gives way to excellent climbing up the lay-back groove. June 9th 2007
French Connection UK F7b Yann Genoux Climb the wall right of 'Wolfgang Forever' until a hands-off rest is reached. Steep moves on pockets over the roof gain the undercut crack. A hard swing right gains the finish of Apple Turn Overload. March 17th 2007
Living the Dream F6c Mick Ward Start by the obvious crack in the previously unclimbed buttress, left of The Death of Cool. Up the easy crack and ledges above (intensively cleaned, but care still needed) to a ledge at one-third height. The climbing then becomes progressively harder. A fine crack in the headwall beckons. Take a 60 metre rope and at least 15 quickdraws. September 15th 2008
Ghost Writer F5 Mick Ward By the beginning of the descent to Blacknor North, a track leads inland, through a little valley, with some good bouldering on the right. At the back of the valley is a prominent arête. Climb the arête on the right-hand side without barn dooring. F5+. June 6th 2010
Mystery Stripper F5 Mick Ward By the beginning of the descent to Blacknor North, a track leads inland, through a little valley, with some good bouldering on the right. At the back of the valley is a prominent arête. Climb the arête on the left-hand side without barn dooring. F5+, may be F6a. June 6th 2010
