UKH Hills - 'Diamond Crack'

8m.

Rockfax Description
The slanting crack gives a fine exercise in jamming - steep, strenuous and well protected, it was graded VD for many years. A popular route for logging your first flight time! Who said Joe Brown invented hand-jamming - check the FA date. © Rockfax
