Rockfax Description
The last of the trio takes a line up the wall directly below the overhang. Climb up to the right-hand of the two left-facing grooves, move up slightly rightwards then trend back left to a split in the overhang. Heave over this and finish up the crack. © Rockfax

βeta: Felt reasonably solid to me but as usual with Pembroke you can never get complacent. The pull over the overhang was actually quite easy but the moves up and right above are pretty sustained. managed to get a reasonable wire above the overhang but it's a tad runout.

βeta: some loose rock at the top! don't kill your belayer! there is plenty of solid rock to pull on so just be a bit discerning. Great route!

βeta: Pulled two massive blocks off at the top of this climb, exploded on the platform below, could have been serious/fatal for the three people below me

βeta: Almost died from microwave-sized rockfall from previous pair. Be VERY careful on the topout (and placing gear in the overhang). Very loose blocks

βeta: Watch out for loose blocks at the overlap, I pulled a very large block out on the weekend.

βeta: Amazing climb, with the holds getting smaller the higher you get, up to roof which has good holds once you get your feet right. 3* and one of the best in Pembroke.

βeta: Best line on the wall (except ghost ship), lots of nice moves with a pleasantly easy roof after a quite bold thin slab section just below.

βeta: Agreed. Awesome wall climbing with a well protected overhang section to boot. I found traversing the wall to be the scary bit!
