Crag: Lamorna Cove
The Runic Jumper
Date of ascent: 05/05/2017
Length/grade/stars: 7m E2 5c *
Climbers: Billy Ward, Tom Last
Start location:
Looking out from the rip off parking in Lamorna Cove, a massively obvious cracked wall is apparent about half way around the eastern side of the cove, go there.
Pitch descriptions:
Climb the crack, the ledge near the start detract a little, but nice pushy climbing and worth a star. Great micro route. Could be done with pads, but as if anyone is going to bother with that, plus there’s gear so might as well be led.
Additional info:
One of the best aretes in Cornwall is passed on the approach to The Runic Jumper if you take the beach. Unfortunately it looks impossible, or if not then at the very least cutting edge difficulty + probable death type thing. Just in case anyone in Lamorna is looking for that kind of thing!
