OK, so three of us are staying in Edale this weekend and I have found the loops listed below. Please critique them in best STW style and suggest which ones are our best options.

Thanks in advance.
Ladybower is busy at the weekends.
Edale Killer is probably the hardest of the three.
Edale killer needs a little refinement at the south end - it looks to have been put together when Chapel Gate was a noted descent, which is no longer the case. Stay on Rushup edge then across to Hollins cross.
Pretty much did the Edale killer on Saturday.
Apart from the hail smashing my face to bits it was a fantastic route with plenty of variety, although some very stiff climbs.
We did it from Hayfield in a clockwise direction.
