UKC

18m. The classic of the crag directly up the centre of the wall right of the chimney. Well protected. Start centrally and gain the base of the central curving crack line. Up this then step left in a break to then gain a spike above, under a tiny roof. Follow the thin crack above the roof to gain a ledge leading to the tree.

βeta: Think it\'s worth HVS as it\'s sustained at difficulty. Feels noticeably so versus Crocs on the Loch which is VS 4c so HVS is fair for this.

βeta: Mid size block approx 2.5m off the floor loose. Felt fairly well keyed in, but wouldn't pull too hard on it
