Night firing normally occurs on Tuesday & Thursday but may also alternate to Monday & Wednesday.
This crag has had a couple of major rock falls in recent years. Expect to find some routes missing or harder than you thought they would be!
Dates: 1 March to 1 August
Reason: Nesting Birds
In previous years a restriction has been in force here, but as the birds have not nested here for a number of years this restriction is no longer in force. If the restriction is re-instated then cliff top markers will be placed on the site by PCNPA.
Rockfax Description
This is only slightly harder than Ultravixens and equally as good. Climb Ultravixens over the initial roof, into the groove. Then trend up and leftwards to a small ledge. Climb the wall above past a thin break to the wide upper break. Step left and finish up a left-facing corner. © Rockfax

βeta: The Wired guide says “A high runner on Ultravixens is advisable”. Without it, you’re looking at a ground fall if you come off the crux traverse. | ||

βeta: This may be only slightly harder, but it seems much more difficult to protect. I had a runout stretching right back past the crux to the divergance point with Ultravixens. | βeta? | |
