The Arc'teryx Lakeland Revival helps to preserve classic Lake District trad routes that might otherwise be forgotten. We travelled there to discover the history of climbing in the area. Speaking to expert Trevor Langhorne and climbing with Charlie Woodburn and Gilly McArthur we piece together the first ascent of 'Oliverson's Variation And Lyon's Crawl'. This classic VDiff on Gimmer Crag is a wonderful adventure, interesting for the modern climber...far more serious in 1907.
More information on the Lakeland Revival here.
