Classic Rock

Emily Knight climbs Pavey Ark with Anna Fleming and local legend Bill Birkett.

Jack's Rake is a famous diagonal groove up a Lake District rock face. It's tough, but not too tough - so can a newby climber manage it?

Helping Emily Knight up the face is Anna Fleming, author of Time on Rock, plus Langdale native Bill Birkett who's made a few first ascents in the Lakes. On the way they talk about the rock, the attitude, and the kit.

The producer for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ audio in Bristol is Miles Warde
