Rockfax Description
A popular Extreme, which has a particularly attractive first pitch that is often climbed in its own right. Start below a diagonal black seam at a finger ledge above a low horizontal break.1) 5b, 26m. Move up to, and stand on the finger ledge. Follow the thin line leftwards to a small overhang and continue up the technical crack to an easing below the steep wall above. Follow the diagonal line rightwards to a belay on a ledge.2) 11m. Continue up easily to a good ledge and belay below the huge upper corner.3) 5a, 28m. Climb the corner all the way to the capping roofs and exit right via some very spectacular moves. © Rockfax

βeta: What a contrast. Very cool route. Feel like you are on top of the world in the cave before the top section crux. Hold on and go for the traverse. | βeta? | |
