Rockfax Description
60m. This excellent, popular and well-protected climb takes the prominent dihedral (corner) running up the buttress right of the Thearlaich-Dubh Gap. One of the best short routes in the Cuillin. Start below the diedre.
1. 20m 4c Climb an initial dihedral (or on the right if wet, 4b).
2. 40m 4c Continue up the dihedral, including an overhang.
