Either way, there's still a FA up for grabs.

Pollit's bullshit arbitrary belay at the end of WP pitch 2 should be ripped out - you climb right around the outside of it with the help of a beautiful very deep 2/3 finger pocket. World Party should have only ever been 2 pitches. Fist Party (crap name I agree) also should avoid this dumb end point.

There's a lie down rest in the cave above the second belay anyway so you can have a nice long rest Neil just in time to get shit scared on the top (beautiful) section.

The last runout without gear is real brown pants territory and there's a good chance your forearms will be so utterly f---ed (like min were) that you will end up dyno-ing for the chicken heads.

What a magnificent piece of rock.
