Over Owler Tor
by remus
Another nice addition to the circuit above Millstone, though perhaps not quite to the standards of Secret Garden and Mother Cap. The best of the trad is 18. Aeroflot, but the main reason to visit is likely for the bouldering. 44. Golden Arete and 45. Spider Crack are both great problems, and there is a good circuit of 3rd, 4th and 5th grade problems which are great for a quick evening hit when the crag sees the setting sun.
