Restrictions normally apply from the route  "Black & Blue"  to the far south side of the crag ("Freshly Dug") inclusive - all routes between and including these routes are usually restricted from Feb 15th until July 15th. Look out for marker posts on the cliff base to confirm the restrictions.   All routes on the right hand side of Nemesis wall sector and all of Dawn Buttress sector are affected by this restriction.

 

 

 

 

Rockfax Description
A fine addition straight up the centre of the wall using a high hanging arete and with a super-exposed roof finale. Sustained despite two good rest spots. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
New bolts between Manic Mechanic and Smokin' Gun, finishing direct over the big final roof. The first half shares ground with MM and SG, before a new finish.

November 2013: No longer possible to climb as a sport route, 2 consecutive bolts on the tough but superb hanging fin have been removed.
