Rockfax Description
105m. The compelling thin crack-line in the left wall of Yo-Yo. Dry conditions are desirable.
1. 40m 6a Starting about 5m left of Yo-Yo, climb leftwards up the slabby shelf through the lower bulges, move left on a slab until it becomes possible to move right to a thin ledge (poor sling possible on an anvil-shaped hold). Continue directly up the wall (bold) then step right into a crack which is followed to The Shelf.
2. 40m 6a Climb the left wall (slim left-facing groove) of the corner above to a roof. Step right under the roof, pull over and continue to a small ledge with a poor belay.
3. 25m 5a Easier ground to the top.
