40m. HOY, Rora Head, Gully 1, Exposure Wall:

Just east around the corner on the sea ward facing cliffs of Gully 1 is a newly climbed wall, steep solid red sandstone,
visible from the west side of Gully 1. Routes are described from left to right, from end of geo one east wall, along
exposure wall and towards Rackwick. All start from ledges at the base of the solid 30m wall, above the less quality lower
walls.

Aching Bodies and Burned Minds

Start from the lowest and eye-shaped platform below the corner, situated just left of the steep clean red face that the following
routes climb. Belay at the left end of the ledge on small gear. Climb up to the ledge above, move right and then climb up a small
corner left of the main corner until an airy move can be made around the arete onto a ledge in the main corner. Climb the main corner
(past two worrying jammed blocks) passing several large ledges. Exit left at top.
