Rockfax Description
Follow either of the Robin Hood's Staircase starts until just below the cliff top then jam left along the horizontal break to a tricky finish up the left-hand arete. Slightly aimless but it gives easy climbing across an impressive wall. © Rockfax

βeta: Great once you get to the traverse. Didn't enjoy the unprotected start that was unexpectedly hard. Fun last moves I think deserve 4c. Pumpy route!

βeta: I did this ticking off some routes I’ve never done, it was really enjoyable, great traverse (protected with friends) and edgy finish, worth doing :)
