Seasonal Restrictions

Reason: Nesting Birds

The restriction from 'Charybdis' to 'Leap of Faith' (Boulder Choke area) remains in place until Aug 1st. The main parts of the Leap are not affected. 

There may be seal pubs in the Leap in the Autumn - signs will be posted on the gate at St Govans car park if there are any restrictions for climbers at this time

Rockfax Description
The right-most climb on the wall is another classic which is probably best combined with Scorch the Earth. Start at the right-hand end of the wall beneath a wide crack high up. Climb up to the bulge and pull over directly to a peg (there is a sneaky little rightwards bypass around this move which is a bit easier). Move easily up to the base of the wide crack. A delightful traverse leftwards leads to a ledge below a bulge. Either finish direct (as for Scorch the Earth), or make a hard move up and left into Bloody Sunday. © Rockfax

βeta: just amazing climbing. Even avoiding the bit pastr the peg i'd say pretty hard for E4. Thought it about the same as minotaur.
