Rockfax Description
A great route up two separate grooves.
1) 5c, 15m. From the right end of the block platform, move up into the sustained groove which leads to a belay ledge.
2) 6a, 15m. Traverse right into the base of the hanging groove. Climb this with difficulty. At its top, swing right to finish up a smaller corner. A direct finish is also possible at the same grade. © Rockfax
