Mike / have you a description for this - the original 18 hour girdle ? If not ,I'll see if Al Phizacklea ever wrote it all down - think it was done in 1989

The first 5 editions of the Tremadog guide made no reference to climbing up for 20ft. at the start of the third pitch. Why was the description changed? It's no wonder so many climbers miss out the best section of 1 step and think it's a soft touch. They've actually done Hail Bebe.

Instead of finishing up Hail Bebe, which is the norm, try finishing up the E1 6a finish to G String. Easily accessed and a good well protected problem.
