Rockfax Description
Two good sections split by a big ledge. Climb the thin once-pegged crack to ledges. Power up the twin cracks in the groove to finish. Ignoring the left-hand crack is a touch harder and also more strenuous. © Rockfax

βeta: Fantatstic, good gear and good climbing. Dont start up the corner, the front of the face is the correct route, and harder. Good contrast to the top section. | βeta? | |
