Rockfax Description
One of the classic testpieces of the Peak - polish is no excuse since it has been slippery for many years. Head diagonally right with testing moves to clip the old peg (beware of runners in the undercut; they may appear better than they are). Move up to the break, swing up and left and tackle the upper crack past an awkward-to-place runner. © Rockfax

βeta: Have to disagree slightly with Alun, don't head left it's a kop out. stick with the pumpfest crack. Great route really enjoyed it surprised that I have avoided it for so long, but I guess that's down to Stoney's reputation. | βeta? | |

βeta: Sustained, technical and slippery to get past the peg and reach the second break and okay rest. Make sure you head slightly left from here before heading for the tree, don't go straight up as I did! | βeta? | |
