Hardest route for a grade / sandbags 12-Nov-2004 At 5:02:36 PM Robin
Message
From the posts so far it would appear that crack climbing seems to figure quite highly in perceived sandbags. Witch, Morphyd, Plumb Jam, Pie in the Sky, Eurydice etc. I would guess that these were graded when crack climbing was more in vogue. I think these are all true to the grade, even Witch if you can jam the crux.

I did a climb recently at Blazed Rock called Grim Reaper (or something like that) which at 19 I thought felt at least a couple of grades harder than Morphyd. No technical moves, just a solid grunt so I guess technically it's only 19/20. Scorpion Direct start (17) is another 'solid' jam crack.
