The four main sections, North, Central, South and Far South have a continuous under cliff path lining them all. But it is better to access each section from either end. After the 2014 landslide destroyed the southern approach, Far South and south are best accessed from the wall quarry a top South section. Sections of the Path can be quick tricky, especially in the wet and the paths to the beach blocks tend to move around over time. Take a moment to look where you are heading to before heading straight to your chosen climbing area.
The classic Pregnant Pause a contender for Portlands longest route, is a full 30m and take a least 16 Draws. A full 60m rope will make it be always tie a knot in the end just in case!

βeta: There is a bolted line to the left, between this route and the crack of the trad route, The Enema Within. This also features a peapod-shaped groove. I thought it was probably F6c+ but particularly difficult on-sight. Does anyone know what this route is? | βeta? | |

βeta: Hard for the grade! Thought this was certainly 6c+. Good climbing though for such a short little route. | βeta? | |
