Rockfax Description
45m. An excellent, absorbing route with good protection. Requires a good spell of dry weather for the cracks to dry. High in the grade. Start as for Spider Left Hand. Climb the lower wall to the ledge at 8m. A short wall leads into cracks which are followed leftwards to gain the more pronounced crack/groove-line bordering the left edge of the streak. Follow this with some minor deviation to the broad ledge.

UKC Logbook Description
Follow the faint groove to the left of Spider R-H until a traverse right (poor protection) is neccessary. Trend back left to a ledge before further bold climbing gains the top. Entirely independant of Spider R-H as described.
