Mirror, Mirror... Independent Start 10m VS 4c
Posted by: Stephen Reid, 22.05.201820.05.2018, SJH Reid, P Wood This new start means that almost the whole of Mirror, Mirror… is now independent of other climbs and, with the new found gear placement on the upper wall of pitch 2, makes a tremendous way up the West Face of Low Man.
Instead of starting as for Nook and Wall Climb, start just to its left of at a short right-slanting crack. Climb the crack to gain the base of the chimney of Nook and Wall Climb, step left immediately and climb the superb rough buttress to the terrace. Instead of moving left to join the right-slanting ramp of Nook and Wall Climb, climb the wall straight ahead to gain the ramp at the point where Mirror, Mirror… leaves it by a hand or foot traverse left (at 5a/b).
