UKC

Rockfax Description
A brutal fight for those who can't jam or bridge, and just a mere brawl for those that can. The central groove gives this classic bridging/jamming route. There are several good rests up the groove - the trick is to make it to them before you get too pumped, as moving between them is energy sapping. At the top of the groove, move right into the turret belay of Brant. Continue up Brant from the first belay, or, like most people, abseil off. © Rockfax
