Rockfax Description
75m. An excellent climb with two contrasting pitches. In its lower half it follows a thin crack in an otherwise featureless wall, leading to a prominent black crack above. Start 12m up the rake leftwards from the start of Pegleg.
1) 5a, 30m. Climb the grey wall above (quite bold) to a point 5m to the right of the base of a black crack which splits the upper wall. Traverse into the crack .
2) 5b, 45m. Climb the steep crack for 25m, then a thin crack running up a smooth slab (crux), until easier ground gains the terrace. © Rockfax
