First Ascents:

The three lines on White Stone Low Crag, Long Ridge, Two Overhang Route and Elk were all climbed by N Gough and G Highmoor on 16th August 1963. This predates the recorded ascents of the latter two routes and may have been the first ascent of Long Ridge.

There are two listings for Reefer Madness, 1991 Vickers, Cronshaw and 1992 Halford, Gribbin. The entry should read:
1991 Feb  Reefer Madness - I Vickers, D Cronshaw
Bolted and named by subsequent ascentionists under the impression it had not been climbed - the name seems to have stuck.

Ropearse was first climbed 4th August 1991 by Stuart Halford and Jim Bird (Jim's name is missing off the First Ascents list). Also the date given for the route on page 273 should be 1991, not 1992. 

Hunding Direct Start was by Dave Cronshaw, Les Ainsworth, 30th August, 1999.
