Description Suggest change

The Eldo “mudstone roof” is a unique climbing experience, often involving questionable rock, cryptic sequences, and fiddly gear. Loose Lucy is no different, but for all its scrappiness it’s worth doing- it’s a somewhat compelling line, and the moves are kinda cool. This was attempted as an aid rope solo by a prolific local in the early 1970s, hence the fixed pin.

Start just above the ladder and climb the slab/open book to a rotten ledge and into a shallow, left-facing niche at the roof. Power out the roof past a fixed piton and make a big move to big holds on a flake. Now pull up and over the lip past a tricky crux sequence, and up and slightly left to a threaded block. 

Location Suggest change

The Lower West Face of Redgarden Wall. This climbs the left side of the huge roof which forms the outstanding feature of this sector of Redgarden.

Rappel from a threaded block up and left on the upper wall, above the route Daydream, or scramble up and left to Vertigo Ledge, and walk off left. 

Protection Suggest change

A few wires, small cams to 3.5". There is an old fixed pin at the start of the roof.
