UKH Hills - 'Ffoeg's Folly'

40m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A great combination of pitches taking the left-hand of two parallel grooves in the centre of the walls - the visually striking first pitch being a good HVS in its own right. Start at the shallow open corner with a large 'starfish' shaped piece of graffiti on its right wall.
1) 5a, 16m. Forcefully climb the steep corner-crack to a ledge. Bolt belay.
2) 5c, 23m. Take the groove above the stance, which can sprout various plants in the summer, to where it steepens. Move up past a peg and then pull right to the arete. Step back left to the short blank corner, small wire, and climb this to a huge jug at its top, and a hard-to-spot ring peg on the right. Climb the short slab above to a terrace and belay. Move down and right to the large fir tree and abseil off. © Rockfax

m_collings	10 Jun, 2022	Show βeta βeta: First pitch is soft, ordinarily wouldn't say it should get E2 but the insitu ants nests add an unwelcome crux. Sink your fingers deep into the nest (better hold than it looks after the ants vacate) power on up and avoid placing gear to minimise ant bites. Good holds higher up where arms can be shaken out to clear loose ants. Top pitch is stunning, hard moves protected by micro nuts or big gear placed on questionable rock, no ants.	βeta?
