Avon Gorge (UK)

PolishedGood Either you love it or you hate it- Avon gorge is one of those character building places. You must be prepared for a fair bit of polishment, runouts over dodgy gear, and the occational loose flake. There are lots of great routes if you operate around the HVS grade- the best are on Suspension Bridge Buttress.  (fred)
