Adders are frequently seen around Curbar. They are often very well camoflaged so it's worth keeping an eye out when moving into new areas, picking up kit etc as a bite, although not life threatening to most healthy adults can still be nasty.

Ticks are abundant due to a large population of red deer. take care, particularly if passing through bracken below the crag.

βeta: If this was previously in a guide at a lower grade, it would truly be a dangerous sand-bag! Totally agree with Fiend - a great little wall climb that deserves a bit more recognition (and a star or two).
