Rockfax Description
The wall to the left of The Crack is followed direct by this sustained and varied line. Start as for The Crack.
1) 5b, 20m. Climb the initial section of The Crack then follow a series of slim corners on the left to easier ground and the first belay of The Crack.
2) 5b, 30m. Follow The Crack, but pull right to gain a thin crack which leads direct to another junction with The Crack. Move left then up with difficulty over an overlap. Continue over a second overlap above. Move up left to join Inertia at its sentry box. Follow it up a crack to an overhang and move right to a belay.
3) 5a, 15m. Go up the corner, then make a steep pull right into a groove which gradually eases to the top. © Rockfax
