Rockfax Description
A good route, which is relatively straightforward although it is steep, and quite pumpy. Start below the lower end of twin diagonal cracks that streak across the cliff and round an arete.
1) 6a, 38m. Hard moves gain the twin cracks leading leftwards. After a brief respite, more sustained climbing leads to a hard move just before a slabby groove. Abseil from here. Alternatively, climb the groove to belay on the large flake.
2) 4c, 15m. Finish up The Rift. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Takes the obvious twin diagonal cracks up the right hand side of the front face of the gigantic pinnacle. Start beneath the cracks.
1 120'. 6a Move up little and make a hard move left to get established on the line. A good rest after 6 metres is followed by a baffling sequence to enter the slabby groove above. Follow this, and then the wide crack on the right to belay on the top of the flake.
2 70' 4c Gain the crack above and follow this to finish as for the Rift (most parties ab off after the first pitch).
