Rockfax Description
135m. The main interest is a stunning crack in the steep upper wall, right of Creag Dhu Grooves. Start 12m right of the corner, at the right end of a large flat ledge forming a deep crevasse below the wall.
1. 35m 5a Climb the wall, first by a left-slanting groove, then slightly rightwards by cracks to belay over on the left.
2. 25m 5b Climb easily right and up, crossing the right side of a prominent flake, to reach a thin right-slanting corner-crack. Climb this to under an overlap and traverse right to a belay on an airy ledge.
3. 35m 5c Above and left is the main event; a crack splitting the blank wall. Gain and climb it to belay beyond a final overhang.
4. 40m Continue easily up the crack.
