Dates: 15 February to 31 May
Reason: Nesting Birds
2023 26th February update: The Ravens do not appear to be using the existing nest in Gardoms Unconquerable - however one more check will be made in case they are late starting, so please be observant and report any sightings if you are in the area.
In recent years a Tawny Owl has nested in the Layback Crack/Flake Crack.area - it is not known if they are present in 2023 but please keep your eyes and ears out if climbing in this area.
Rockfax Description
Intimidating and tricky. Start as for the previous route until it is possible to writhe into the vertical crack and finish easily. Passing the change in angle is a complete swine! © Rockfax

βeta: An unusual and enjoyable route. The stand-up move to get into the final crack is intimidating but not hard. The rest is ok, so decking really shouldn't be likely at all. Definitely not more than VS, although might feel harder if VS is your top lead grade. | βeta? | |
