CHEE TOR GIRDLE
VS 4b, 4b, 4a, 5a, 4c
172 metres
Film: 1 hour 22 minutes
It goes on for miles - above a slow moving pool in a hidden dale, like something out of Jurassic Park. If a diplodocus came around the corner you wouldn’t be surprised.
A route for fans of lateral movement, this sideways-adventure follows a pronounced break at two thirds height, cutting across the peaceful and timeless valley of Chee Dale.
Copious in-situ antique protection and a smattering of polish, adds to the journey on this classic limestone traverse.
It’s not just a climb… it’s an expedition!
