The coast has unfortunately been used as a suicide spot and loose kit, clothing etc. lying around has resulted in the coastguard being called out. To avoid this, climbers are requested to ensure loose equipment and clothing is kept in rucksacks on the cliff top and preferably hidden from public view. You could also consider attaching a note to your sacks saying something like, 'Equipment being used by climbers - do not remove'.
Dates: 1 March to 31 July
Reason: Nesting Birds
No climbing between The Tool and Marmolata Arete inclusive to prevent disturbance of nesting birds. If using the Marmolata abseil point, please stay in the corner, spend as little time on top as possible and don't bring dogs to the top of the crag. Restrictions also apply from Sardine Special to Hard Day's Night, Andycap to Raindrop and Quasimodo to Insectitude inclusive.
Rockfax Description
Climbs the blank gold wall right of Gypsy and the headwall above. Follow Thunder Groove to a ledge at 7m then climb straight up (right of Gypsy) to some small edges on the golden wall. Now step right with feet in the thin break to a good edge and pull straight up to the faultline. Follow a short crack on to the headwall which leads to an overlap. Step right through this and then left into an exposed thin crack which leads to a well cleaned finish. © Rockfax
