Steve McClure climbing Lexicon, the E11 at Pavey Ark first ascended by Neil Gresham in September 2021 and repeated by McClure a week after his terrifying fall.
Neil Gresham
Last September Steve McClure made the second ascent of Lexicon, the E11 trad climb at Pavey Ark in England established a few weeks earlier by Neil Gresham.
McClure’s ascent wasn’t without a glitch: the 51-year-old took a harrowing 20m fall from the last moves, coming uncomfortably close to hitting the deck. Check out the footage of one of the biggest trad whippers you're ever likely to see, filmed for last year’s Brit Rock Film Tour by Alastair Lee and Dave MacLeod. For the record, MacLeod made the third ascent in April this year. Without taking the fall.
