Rockfax Description
A great alternative if you are up to it, though, as the grade suggests, it is delicate and bold with virtually no gear. Climb the scoop until it steepens then balance out right to gain and climb the slab. Finish up the original or solo right to Ordinary Route. © Rockfax

βeta: quick reply to the 'Badger Jockey' character in the comments. If the crux is at 20m, and the first good gear is at 25m, how can 'two small nuts' below the 10m mark constitute good protection? Weapon. | ||

βeta: The direct start was very damp and greasy, but I did find some average gear. A brilliant nut slot on edge of main slab at about 20/25 feet but you might still hit the deck on this one! | ||
