1) 5a, 37m. Climb the right side of the short steep pillar, passing vegetation, to reach the belay on KCD. Follow the left arete of the slab to reach a bulge close to KCD. Climb over this and go up the slabbv wall above to a large grassy ledge.
2) 13m. Walk right along the terrace and belay below the wall or at a better belay in corner to the right.
3) 4c, 20m. Climb the wall just left of the corner then move right to a thread belay on a ledge.
4) 4a, 15m. At the back of the bay is a short steep wall with a crack. Climb the lower half of the crack then step right and follow a pocketed crack to the top. © Rockfax
