Rockfax Description
An amazing line which sadly still requires aid to cross the huge roof. Aid is required on pitch 2 which is around A3 in difficulty.
1) 5c, 30m. Climb a V-groove and thin continuation crack. Move up left to gain a groove and follow this to the stance on Pigs on the Wing.
2) A3, 20m. Cross the roof using pegs and some placed gear for aid. Once around the lip, climb direct up easier ground. © Rockfax
