Nige Callender has joined an elite, select few who have managed to climb Halfway House V12/8a+ in Parisella’s Cave.

Halfway House pulls on with hands on the Lou Ferrino ramp and makes some brutal moves across the pocketed roof into Chris Davies’ original stand up line: Trigger Cut (a V11/8a in its own right).

Nige had obviously put the hours in (the key to all hard ascents in the cave):

"I confirm the grade of V12/8a+ - as It's taken me yonks!"
