Can seep so dry days are best. On the other hand it gets very hot in the sunshine.

On the right wing of the crag there are two rare Rock Whitebeam trees, these are some of the only remaining Rock Whitebeam in the Yorkshire Dales and likely represent a genetically distinct population. They are close to the routes Nettle Rash, Britvic Fifty-five and Mettle Nettle. Climber have been reported as damaging one of these by pruning. Under no circumstance should these trees be climbed on or pruned further, regardless of any encroachment onto routes. If climbing and free growth of these trees is not compatible then the affected routes will have to be banned.

A series of variations but with some good moves. Up the thin crackline to a big move to gain Passion. Climb to its 4th bolt, Pull right as for Roads to Roam (resting in Slimline if you wish – award yourself an extra half pint in the pub if you don’t) then up the wall to eventually reach good holds on LtR. Follow this but climb the rib between the roofs to the belay. The groove on Passion can be entered from below to form another though harder variation.
2003 Stephen Coates, Paul Clarke. It used the Passion bolts to contrive variations. Rationalised and bolted 2020.
