That's great news about the Trojan Wall line finally getting an ascent (I must tell Ray Lassman, John Smart and Norm Booth). I recall the whole boot thing was a spectacular failure and I also remember getting up under the roof and then having to down-climb (well, down-squirm really, and nearly falling in the process) to a place where I could relax enough to put in something on which to bail. As for protecting the lower section I think we must have had one or two tubes but they were far and few between and quite poor. Probably could have anchored on my foot with it's big mountain boot. Possibly we might have had more success if Ray, with his leathery old feet, had tried leading barefoot. I think Henry thought it would be about 23 and we figured it was 20ish up to where we left it.
Cheers and thanks for that news.
