Rockfax Description
The first half of this climb gives some good sustained climbing. Step out of the groove of Strap-Up at its first roof. Make an awkward move around the arete and then climb the sustained crack above. From here move right to the arete and take the most stable line up the tower above. Unfortunately the gear on the upper tower tends to be behind the dodgy blocks you are pulling on. © Rockfax
