From Alan James report on UKC:
"Miles Gibson has succeeded on a major new route at Wimberry near Sickbay Shuffle. He called the route Dangermouse and gave it a grade of E9 7a.
Miles climbed the route late on Saturday after waiting for the right cooler conditions. He has been trying it on and off for the last two months but the conditions proved very frustrating. When it was cool in August it was wet, and since the weather improved, it has usually been too warm.
The steep direct arete below Sickbay Shuffle is one of many ‘last great problems’ at Wimberry. "
