Access Banned

In June 2022 signage was installed by the landowner indicating that they do not wish crags on the west side of the dale (Griff's, Black & Deckout, etc.) to be climbed on.

Negotiations to secure access have failed to reach a positive outcome. As such climbers should be aware that the owner does not permit access to west/lower Blackwell Dale. Any climber choosing to visit therfore does so against the wishes of the landowner and should politely leave without complaint if asked to do so.

13m.

Rockfax Description
A powerful route following the line of substantial glue-in bolts. Start on the left-hand side of the juggy ledge then undercut left to gain a crack (f7A). Follow this up and then make a hard stretch rightwards to gain another crack. Finish more easily. © Rockfax
