Restricted Access
The National Trust (who own the Dewerstone and surrounding land) are happy to allow climbing access but ask that abseil descent from trees is not used to prevent damage to the trees.
Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 21 April to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Kestrels are nesting on Upper Raven Buttress - it is worth avoiding these rarely visited climbs while the birds are nesting and it is likely that the young will have fledged by the end of June.
8m.
100m beyond the Tooth, above the Trapezium boulder is another tooth of rock.
The obvious line of weakness is very escapable most the way but you wouldn't want to fall off.
Avoiding the boulders below with your feet (if you like) Climb protruding flattys to a good hold on the hanging arete, a big committing move up left allows the flake to be reached and the safety of the top.
Be warned the down climb is awkward.
