Rockfax Description
A varied route with commodious stances and a tricky first pitch.
1) 4b, 15m. Climb the polished crack on the right of the slab, which eases at a ledge at half-height. Follow the easier crack up leftwards to a step left which leads to a large ledge.
1a) 15m. The technical thin crack can be avoided by climbing a groove on the right. This is more in keeping with the rest of the route.
2) 4a, 15m. Climb up behind the tree to the overhanging chimney on the left. Steep squirmy moves and bridging gain a slab and a large ledge system.
3) 4a, 15m. Climb the slabby groove on the left to a wall. Turn right and follow easy ground to a final wide corner-crack (optional belay). A difficult move to enter the corner is followed by more slippery moves up the corner that leads to the top. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Pitch 1 takes the lovely slab starting at the centre then heading across to the right arete. A few variations possible at the grade - right arete all the way, straight up the crack or trend leftwards into Y Broga for the last bit. Belay at the big tree.
Pitch 2 Climb the pointy blocky overhang behind the tree. Can be greasy if wet. Continue up a bit to belay at another big tree.
Pitch 3 Climb the corner and wide crack above to emerge into sunlight again.
