Rockfax Description
Start at the appealing crack in the wall right of the central corner/groove. Climb the crack to a small ledge and then move up to the left end of a larger bramble covered ledge. Continue up the groove/wall above to easier ground that leads to a tree. © Rockfax

βeta: Ab is fine, but added an old-ish sling just to be on the safe side

βeta: Pumpy start to the first break. The first larger ledge is best mounted on the left pillar rather than into the brambles, climb the pillar a little further and then foot traverse right past a small rock spike runner to the upper ledge. The lackback crack makes it easy to mount the ledge and a hands free rest before the final crack.

βeta: The blocks which form the top of the crack system are quite detached from the main cliff, but the only way to get to the top is to pull on them..!

βeta: foothold on the hard starting section (not one of the loose blocks) snapped off unexpectedly - glad it didn\'t happen on lead...

βeta: Plenty of good gear and the moves are all there but it takes a bit of thought to put them together. After the first ledge traverse left, then up and then back right past a good rock spike runner in an otherwise blank section.
