Rockfax Description
A magical climb with outstanding positions and intricate manoeuvres. Start at the base of the slab that heads up to steeper ground.
1) 4c, 26m. Move up the slab to ledges and gain a small depression up on the right. Pull out steeply left to a corner. Follow this and the wall and slim rib above to The Pasture.
2) 5a, 22m. Head up and rightwards to stand on a small flat-topped pillar. Traverse left to a square-cut open chimney and follow it (good nut) until you can exit left onto a slab. Finish up the slab and corners. © Rockfax
