Rockfax Description
Start at rocky ledges under a jutting prow. A thin crack in a shallow groove leads to a ledge on The Giant's Staircase. Climb up to a ledge then lean back right to enter the spectacular, but short lived, jamming crack. Once round the roof finish easily. A real battle for most and watch the rope-drag! © Rockfax
