Dates: 28 April to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
2023 update: There are Kestrels nesting in Cascara Crack again this year. The restriction applies to Cascara Crack to SAE inclusive.
For Pulpit Groove and Suspense/etc please either top out or belay back in the trees away from the edge of the ledge to help avoid disturbing the birds.
Rockfax Description
The thin crack in the centre of the wall gives excellent and well-protected climbing. It can be dirty after rain. © Rockfax

βeta: I only seconded this but it definitely didnt feel 5c (which I usually find quite tough, whereas the moves ointhis were fine). It would certainly be a hard HVS though seeing as there are a couple of hard moves. | βeta? | |

βeta: I can't see how the initial and final moves are less than 5c. Yes it's well protected but I was gripped. | βeta? | |

βeta: How can this be graded harder than Great Peter (E1 5b) ? A hard 5b move at the start, and a slightly bold, balancy move at the top. Great climb. | βeta? | |
