Rockfax Description
Classic. Climb the ledgy left arete then balance right into the beckoning groove. Up this delicately to ledges out right then step right again for a gritty finish. Harder for the very short. © Rockfax

βeta: Nice route, better name. Two good gear placements in the middle protect all the tricky moves. Don't think locals top-rope (not sure if I count as a local) you may mean the far end, but most belay stakes are there to belay from...as there isn't anything else along the top, not sure where that strange assumption came from. | βeta? |

βeta: Led it 20/03/05 and found loads of good gear on it. Easy VS at most. Technique not brawn required. Wasn't too sandy either. | βeta? |

βeta: Unusual for Denham in that it actually has reasonable gear (locals usually TR most routes, hence all the belay posts along the top). Nice route. | βeta? |
