Rockfax Description
The crack can be led and has decent gear. Often damp, when it is harder and much less worthy! © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The Cheeky pockets on the left wall are strictly not in but most people use em.

βeta: A fun one to onsight solo and quite gripping as I didn't expect it to be soo dirty. Pretty soft for E1 with the ample protection that would be available. Exciting

βeta: E1 5b ** (OS Lead). Comments are spot on for this, steady E1 in good conditions, a lot harder and no stars when damp! A great climb with nice moves, really excellent protection, and a hint of the pump.

βeta: Each wall immediately to the side of the crack (without using it!) goes at a reachy and pumpy 6b - The Fly to the left (looking in) and Spiderman to the right. If you are smaller than 6' 4 you can be forgiven one use of the crack at the top!

βeta: Local opinion agrees that this is overgraded. Dry and clean (which it hardly ever is) it would be E1 5b. In its usual state (we are trying to clean it up!) it is E2.

βeta: Never E3 in a million years! Solid E1 5b. Good route though.

βeta: The only seriously over-graded route at Pex? (Get your easy tick in before it's corrected!)
