Rockfax Description
The gully left of the big overhangs is polished and hard when damp. Pass either side of the block (easier to the right) to reach the chimney - stance? Continue up the rift on big chipped holds, to a choice of exits. The route is an odd mixture of polished holds and vegetation - and the final chimney smells. © Rockfax
