Simply the finest crag on grit with well over 1000 routes of all grades and styles. The most popular of climbing areas in the UK with a huge number of classic routes. We have split the area into the same divisions as used for UKC logbooks, namely Stanage Popular, Stanage Plantation and Stanage North. Bouldering activities should be entered into the 'Outdoor Bouldering' section of DLOG. Routes on other gritstone crags, such as Burbage North, should be added to the relevant Area as noted in the Area titles.
Mantel isn't too bad if you get it right and the rest is steady for the grade, but not a route to take lightly. Some dubious advice about the 'bomber' gear below, I'd recommend taking a selection of small cams and preferably not testing them. Obviously really good though.
