Rockfax Description
Start under the centre of roof and follow the flake out right to access a ledge - a dangle, heel-hooks and pulling on the rhododendron are the norm. The slabby wall above is easier but reachy and often a bit damp and dirty. A fingery direct start is Who Gives a Font?, E6 6b. © Rockfax

βeta: no need to pull on the rhododendrons (cheat?) to pull over the roof as there is is plenty of rock to pull on. Very dirty above as rhododendrons have been chopped back so currently there is no need to fight through them however until the soil on ledges has been removed the "easier slabbly wall' is currently quite precariously with little gear to start with so some might prefer to pre fix a rope for the exit. | βeta? | |
