1.Fire Dance E5 6a ***(F6c)
A superb bold Arete at Stoupe Brow.
FFA Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton (Onsight, possibly climbed on bolts before) 2.A Different Kind Of Blue H7 6c ** (F7c)
Ascends the unclimbed arete at Ravenscar, first on its left side and then on it's right, finishing up Strategem. Sustained and hard.
Steve Ramsden (repeated Richard Waterton and Ground Up by 'Reeve')
3.Central Crack E2 5c ** (Stoupe Brow)
The central crack gets gradually harder, with a particularly difficult exit.
Franco Cookson (repeated Dave Warburton- E3 5c+ proposed)

4.Collateral H6/ E7 6c **A hard move surmounting the roof, with a bold top out above. Great solution to an oft-eyed line.
Steve Ramsden (unrepeated)
5.Fresh Arete H6/ E7 6b **
The steep, untra-bold arête at Round Crag.
Dave warburton (repeated by Steve Ramsden- having done the fa of the E5 side-runner version before- confirmed at probable soft E7)
6.Vampiric Obsession E5 6b * (Shallow Bog Solo F7a)
The slab above the marsh. Good moves, prone to being dirty.
Franco Cookson (solo flash) (repeated: Dave Warburton, Andrew Harvie (both headpoint). Confirmed at soft E6/ hard E5)
7.The Hypocrisy Of Moose H8 6c ***
The Stunning arete with one hard move about adequate gear and then a sketchy move above.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton (unrepeated. Top roped by Steve Ramsden- proposed from E6-E8 depending on the outcome of a fall)
8.The Whitestone Traverse HXS 6a/b ***
The 18pitch choss Girdle is everything your soul requires.
Luke Hunt, Franco Cookson (unrepeated)
9.Bivi Direct E3 5c
The direct start to the classic. Now more dangerous since the demise of the 'landing-tree'.
Franco Cookson (unrepeated- likely to be E4/5 now)
10.The Pasketti Alpinist E5 6a ***
The line of solid rock up the face in a spectacular position. Poor gear.
Franco Cookson, Lewis Dale (repeated by Dave Warburton. Grade confirmed- very much dependent on the trust of the cam E4+/E5)
11.The Teeside Twitcher E4+ 6b **
The sandy Eston aid route has gone free at (a hard) E4.
Luke Hunt (second go ground up) (unrepeated, but attempted!)
12. Res Publica E5 6b/6c*
Difficult to grade and harder for the short. A three move wonder with a distinct footless, sideways lunge crux. A good little challenge that must be done ground-up for maximum enjoyment, with runners in Nail File.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton (Ground Up) (Unrepeated)
Metcalfe Onsighting The Jungle Drum
13. The Jungle Drum E3 5c **The arete with gear at halfheight. A superb finish awaits.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton, Andrew Harvey 02/Jul/2011 (onsighted by J. Metcalfe)
14.The Polish Diplomat H5 6b *
Start 2 metres right of Jungle Drum, ascending a wall on positive edges. Arrange gear in thin breaks and climb via layaways to the top, with a particularly hard pull on a finger shredding edge.
Dave Warburton, Sam Marks and Franco Cookson 03/Jul/2011 (unrepeated)
The Chocolate Moose FA
15. The Chocolate Moose E4 6b (font 6c) ***
The fine arete in the alcove at Danby. A great highball problem.
Franco Cookson, Rebecca Earnshaw (headpointed at E5) (repeated and downgraded by D. Warburton and J. Metcalfe as a highball) 09/Aug/11
Snotterbad Little Movie... from Dave Warburton on Vimeo.
16. Snotterdictomy E4 6a**
To the right of sixth sense, ascend the hanging crack with a couple of great moves.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton (Onsight) 7/Aug/2011 (unrepeated)
Mane Vision E5 6c, Round Crag. Ground up FA from Dave Warburton on Vimeo.
17. Mane Vision E5 6c
The exquisitely desperate wall right of 'Lioness' is fortunately well protected, as its climbing is ultra-marginal and extremely fingery. Watch your shins if you fall off.
Dave Warburton, Franco Cookson, Sam Marks (Ground Up) 28th Aug 2011 (unrepeated)
Howl Psyche E7 6b*
The direct start to the 'Otter Wilderness Route' is difficult and serious. Pumpy too if you are onsight and trying to figure out moves.
Dave Warburton, Franco Cookson (solo) 29/08/2011 (unrepeated)
The Battle For Tripoli E6 6a*
The unprotected groove to the left of Howl Psyche is gripping and has some suspect rock. After secure moves up the scoop, make a difficult traverse on gastons out right to a rest and continue with trepidation to the top.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton 29/08/2011 (Unrepeated)
The Stoupe Scoop E7 6b***
The elegant scoop rising leftwards from central crack. Very sustained, bold climbing.
Dave Warburton, Franco Cookson, Nick Warburton 09/2011 (unrepeated)
The Waves Of Inspiration E7 6c***
Nice big crimps up the smooth wall right of the arete- a little bit flamboyant in style.
Franco Cookson, Dave Warburton, Nick Warburton 09/2011 (unrepeated)
