At no stage do we recommend Pixies Delight in our guide. Our guide is a Selected Guide and some routes are selected because they are near other routes and look vaguely interesting (but I accept they might be pox). The fact Pixies Delight received no stars would suggest this is a possibility.

And if you were climbing all this mank and climbing better than ever before, then it might be worth listing as a training strategy. But given you aren't then it shows just what a waste of climbing time it is given the amount of quality routes you could be getting on.
