Rockfax Description
Popular and very good when dry. A bouldery start past some finger pockets leads onto a rail and jug-riddled wall.

Lucky Lizzy, 6c+ - It can be extended to the top of the crag by moving right and climbing the upper section of Surplomb de Ray / Pioneers of the Hypnotic Groove. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The first climb in the cave proper. Use the pockets to get established on the wall then make a big move onto the conglomerate ledge. Heelhook leftwards and then follow the juggy pockets back right to gain the lower off.

Roy Thomas 1996.

βeta: Partner broke off a crimp edge low down, potentially much harder now. Did the moves first time up and couldn't repeat them after, but don't have much experience on the route so unsure if it's vital.
