Grinshill - Bean

About
Several good problems consisting of short hard test pieces and airy aretes.
Directions
From the Corbett Wood car park follow the main forest trail below the car park. After a short way the entrance to the White Tower quarry appears on your right, a small path leads left into the obvious Ass Creek. At the entrance to Ass Creek, scramble up the dirt on your left to reach the Bean area.

1Woodlouse Slab4The short but sweet slab on the left of the arete.
2Indifferance6B+The arete with thin harder moves on the top half. 6C sit start.
3Nicotine Energy7B+ Bump to a small crimp, gain a small hold then the top. Short and hard. Now broken and unrepeated.
4My Arete Brings All The Boys To The Yard6AThe obvious front face of the square buttress. Slap & smear the left & right aretes. A couple of bold moves are needed to finish adding to the drama of this quality mid-grade.
5Libertine7A+The arete on its right is one of the best in the area.
6Time For Tea6A+The corner with a long stretch for the top.
7Bean6AStart on the left end of the rail, rock over to a large side pull on the right, make a big reach to the next ledge. Head up leftwards for two big pocket holds and finish off to the left.
