Rockfax Description
The grassy groove with wobbly chockstones is short-lived. If you are feeling technical, elegant semi-laybacking can avoid the worst of the grovelling. The rocking stone has been vandalised and is now only a shadow of its former self. © Rockfax

βeta: To make the finish more interesting (i.e. less abrupt) one could move left and continue up the (around) 4m chimney created by the two smooth rock faces. Once on top the belay can be done from a big rope-sling thrown around the spike on the left of the chimney.
