Rockfax Description
The enticing hand-jamming crack is a swine to enter from the left (steep) or right (a bit easier). Very pleasant above with a big bucket finish. © Rockfax

βeta: Once pass the hard start the rest is nice and easy and i would say the start is a easy 5bish. I like Randy's wall better.Paul Tomo | βeta? | |

βeta: No way this is 4c 5a/b (start) is fair. Again a good solo/problem with one move at the top to make you think... | βeta? | |

βeta: Lovely route. No need to struggle; reach up to ledge to left of crack and heel-hook ledge to right of crack. Pull up and drop right knee - reach up again and difficulties over. | βeta? | |

βeta: Just did this one in the dark and cold with a knackered head-torch so suspect it wasn't 5b! A wonderful little route, though: marvellous jugginess after the start and good gear all the way. | βeta? | |
