Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 1 March to 1 August
Reason: Nesting Birds

33m.
Climbs the well-positioned left hand arete of the main wall of Flimstone ridge. Approached by abseil or by traversing then crawling through the fissure along the base of the crag to thread belays. Climb straight up to the arete with some goey moves to gain it on it's right hand side. Climb it to the top grinning from ear to ear.

Show βeta
βeta: The approach involves a small-ish jump across a zawn, followed by a traverse which probably comes in at around VS or thereabouts (easily soloable if you’re there for the E5s, but obviously try not to fall). After that it’s a subterranean journey to the start of the route, where there’s plenty of threads to belay off. | βeta? | |
