Adders are frequently seen around Curbar. They are often very well camoflaged so it's worth keeping an eye out when moving into new areas, picking up kit etc as a bite, although not life threatening to most healthy adults can still be nasty.
Ticks are abundant due to a large population of red deer. take care, particularly if passing through bracken below the crag.
Rockfax Description
There is an unremarkable lower pitch (5a ) to the right of Two Pitch Route that is usually ignored so start from a stance on the ledge left of the tower. Move out right then head through the imposing bulges via a short crack with one powerful move to reach easier ground. © Rockfax
