Rockfax Description
The original route of the wall holds its own with the newer additions. Start at a crack at the base of the right-hand side of the wall. Climb 5m up the crack and gain a small ledge on the right. Move right to a rounded flake and make hard moves up to a large horizontal break (big cam). From here, climb a crack leftwards and finish up the steep wall above to the top. © Rockfax
