There's a thread on UKC about scrambles on the Buchaille. Quite interesting suggestions.

One of the comments on the above Mod:
'Chasm to Crowberry Traverse is full on Grade 3 scramble (for a short section only) but not always easy to protect, has suspect rock, a long rising traverse and interesting route finding.'

'Interesting' it was, I guess... Somebody else reckons that if you go off route on it, you're 'stuffed'. Good job I didn't read that before Sunday, I thought we were stuffed anyway without needing a second opinion to confirm it.

There's also some interesting stuff about what people think about scrambling, gear to take, what to be prepared for, etc.
