Rockfax Description
An enjoyable deep water solo that traverses above the high water mark through some cool terrain. Drop down off the end of the ledge, traverse left swinging around the arete and into the cave. To keep the grade at 4c jump in, swim the zawn and climb out to finish. For a bonus challenge continue traversing the wall past some initial hard moves (5b if dry), with the original finish as your plan B. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Fun deep water solo with an overhanging arĂȘte, a through cave and (on pitch 3) a jump and swim across the zawn! Start as for stardust but continue left to take the arĂȘte below a small nose and twist left through the in-cut corner. Entering then exiting the through cave. Take the near side wall (crux) to a stance on the promontory. Dive in (avoiding the Portuguese Men-of-War) to ascend the far wall with ease. Turn around and take the 40ft leap of faith finish for added underwater fun! Deep water essential.
