Rockfax Description
The best of the bunch. A really good pitch starting up the overhanging pocketed wall to the right of the cave. Dynamic moves utilising the various pockets lead to smearing and pulling on undercuts to overcome the bulge and reach the final pumpy corner above. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A fine route on excellent rock, originally aided in 1975 and first freed by the prolific Tom Walkington in 1982. Starting right of the cave, follow the obvious line of pockets to a small bulge. Smear and undercut past this, finishing up a groove to a lower-off shared with Spectral Wizard.

Tom Walkington 1982.
