Done Scarab and Minch and Mixed climb and - but a long time ago so memory is a bit dim, but didn't find Scarab that hard and had the obligatory top out in the dark and rain on mixed climb. Thinking of some of the shorter things such as De Blanc and Regatta ( talk about lacing something up!). Found them significantly easier than say Exploding Tomatoes, Bard, Trapeze or say Muldoon. For some sick reason I seem to climb better and keep my head together on long higher grade slippery slab run-outs than steeper well protected lower grades. Go figure.
