The rock varies in character from typically quarried on the lower tier through to more abrasive rock on the upper tier where blasting has uncovered large tracts of calcite-encrusted rock which almost feels like natural limestone. As with most quarries, extra vigilance needs to be exercised by both climber and belayer here given the blasting activity which has created potential for loose rock.
Don't swim in the bright blue toxic pool (as if you needed telling)!

βeta: This desperately needs a lower first bolt...the landing could terminate your climbing for the year! the route looks unclimbed and an upper section is getting green...all because of the nasty start! | βeta? | |

βeta: Another very worrying first clip. In then end I pre-clipped the first bolt. 2 others top roped it and we all agreed to clip the bolt whilst making the moves upto and passed it would be desparate. Apart from this its a good route especially at the top. | βeta? | |
