Access Banned

A major rock fall has occured - access to the lower tier, beyond Dawes of Perception slab is very restricted and has been fenced off to protect the public.

There is currently no access to the quarry and climbers should avoid it for the time being.

The quarry is within the Padarn Country Park, managed by Gwynedd Council.

15m.

Rockfax Description
At the back of the bay is a nice clean steep slab with four bolts. Some wires can be placed in a crack before the first bolt. The rock at the bottom needs care, but the wall above is worth it!

back of the bay, nice clean steep slab with four bolts to a double lower off, some wires are placeable in the corner crack on the way up to the first bolt, bottom rock needs some care, but wall above is worth it! feels very stiff for grade, 6c me thinks!
