Rockfax Description
Brilliant climbing with lots surprising holds (10 maybe). Climb the short wall to a good ledge (possible belay). Step left and pull through a notch in the overhang onto the slab above. Continue up the face on good holds, trending slightly rightwards then making a reachy pull back left for the fine finish. © Rockfax

βeta: 60m rope isn't quite long enough to do the route and ab off the tree anchor in a single pitch (70m would be fine). Dodgy untying and downclimbing ensued. | ||

βeta: 1st pitch a path, not worth 4a let alone 4b. 2nd pitch has one well protected reachy 5a move, ace route go do! | βeta? | |

βeta: I was told the top pitch was 5a - that's what i expected and that's what I got. A very worthwhile climb in a great location. | βeta? | |

βeta: 4b?!! Maybe it depends on the line taken, but by the logical direct approach it has to be reachy 5a/b, though very safe. | ||
