Restricted Access

WARNING- (see comments) The semi-detached boss at the left of the crag is moving away and will eventually fall apart. Please DO NOT climb or hang on it - if you pull it off, it could kill you.

No problems with access. From Edinburgh head to Blackford hill. The quarry can be found on the south side besides Blackford Glen.
Park either in the Edinburgh Observatory car park, on Braid Hills drive or on Blackford Glen Road - park in designated areas, don't block the access to the farms and to Edinburgh Council waste centre.

(Eliminate version of BiS' Low Traverse). Sit start at the low spike on the right. Traverse leftward into Procrastination pillar/nose, staying low (top of Procrastination nose is out). Cross this pillar on edges, slopers and side pulls, and reach for a big flat hold within the overhanging 'Groove crack'. Drop down and continue leftwards within the overhang of 'Murder by numbers', using the handrail but not the jugs, to reach the starting holds of 'Pocket slopers'. Finish up on 'Pocket Slopers' and top out.
