Rockfax Description
A pumpy Wilton classic, powerful and devious, though with good gear throughout. Rope work can be a little problematical. From Blackout climb strenuously to the seagull-shaped roof then compose yourself before launching right along this to a bridged rest at its far end. Just when you thought it was all over you find that the final short crack takes no prisoners. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
An intense route with brutal climbing along the slanting roof (easier for dwarfs with thin fingers) to a jamming (not bridging) rest, then more precarious and powerful moves to a nice top-out. Hard and safe.
