2 pitches. Absolutely classic climbing up the centre of the steep black slab. Comparable to Northumberland Wall @ Diabeg and deserves to be as popular. More open now the lower tree has been felled.
1. 40m 5c. Climb the black corner then pale corner rightwards to gain a break leading back into the thin crack. Climb this direct for a long way with tricky moves leading to a good small stance on the upper steeper diagonal break.
2. 30m 5c. Traverse the break with difficulty leftwards to gain a shallow groove. Follow this and cracks above slightly rightwards to finish.

Rab Anderson & Murray Hamilton May/1983.
