Rockfax Description
A wandering route with some quality climbing.
1) 6a, 10m. Climb the thin hanging crack and its wider continuation until the Bower can be reached by a short traverse.
2) 5c, 15m. Climb to the giant roof then follow the strenuous hand-traverse out left to the arete. Step left and climb Five Finger Exercise to below its crux flake then traverse left to a belay in Owl Gully. Problematic rope work on this pitch.
3) 5c, 10m. Climb the steep diagonal crack to the right edge of the Fern Hill ledge and an awkward exit © Rockfax
