Rockfax Description
The deep slanting cleft to a taxing exit. A perverse affair. A steep direct start is 4c and misses out on some of the fun. © Rockfax

βeta: Can either be climbed outside with a tricky layback start from a spike, or (more amusingly) climb the back of the chimney, post yourself through a hole back towards the light and finish round the entertaining narrowing. An awesome route.

βeta: This has never been VDiff. I climb a lot of green chimneys and this was one very tricky at the top. Definitly Severe.
