Description Suggest change

Loose Ends starts on the left of the two big overhangs in the Cave and follows the left-angling crack through the tiered overhangs above.  Unfortunately the difficulty and quality decline after this excellent start.  The climbing above the initial overhangs is low fifth class on often dirty rock with grass bogs and  vines.

 

Loose Ends was the name used by unknown Lancaster climbers from F&M in the mid 70s.  They likely weren't the first to do this, since the start of this route is such an obvious challenge.  It might be worthwhile to do one pitch and then rap off. 

Location Suggest change

Left side of the Cave. 

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack.  After the excellent boulder problem crux over the large overhang,  the moves through the easier overhangs above protect well.
