Creag na H-lolaire

Low Wall

Private Chancer - 20m HVS 5a
C.Pettigrew, T.Burley. 2nd July, 1998
Start as for Sultans of Swing. Once established in the crack, climb directly up the slab face and follow the detached block on its right-hand side to the top.

Brokeback Mounting 12m E1 5c *
Alasdair Fulton, Andy Inglis - April 2006
Start on top of a small boulder, below a groove with twin cracks, midway between the original and direct start to "Sultans of Swing". Make a bouldery start on LH sidepull and reach for a high LH layaway, follow the groove directly to the top, crossing over sultans of swing.
The start has been climbed in 1998 by M.Robinson (Sultans of Swing, Proper Direct Start), and the finish coincides with Private Chancer.

Sultans of Swing, Proper Direct Start - 5c
M.Robson. 19th April, 1998
Climb straight up to the niche of Sultans of Swing (hard to imagine it has not been done before).

Left Branch Eliminate - 12m E1 5b
M.Robson, T.Ward. 19th April, 1998
Start at the chockstone above the start of Sultans of Swing Direct Start (Route 11a in Guide). Climb straight up into a steep finger crack, move right at the top of this and continue to the top.
