Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 1 August

Reason: Nesting Birds

The climbs between Hororscope and Galactic Coordinator inlusive can only be reached by abseil during 1st March to 1st August (don't scramble in from the west as this approach encroaches on the restriction to the west).There is also a nesting season restriction (1st Mar - 1st Aug) covering Star Control to Rabbit Ripper inlcuding all 3 girdle traverses. This includes Deep Throat. 

 

50m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
Not quite as good as its neighbours but worthwhile nevertheless. Start as for Galactic Co-ordinator.
1) 5b, 30m. Travers right across the gap, then climb the crack above. Step right to a groove and follow this with difficulty to the break. Move left to belay.
2) 5b, 20m. Pull up rightwards on the arete, then climb left across Galactic Co-ordinator, up the wall to the top. © Rockfax
