UKC

50m, 3 pitches. A full L-R traverse of the main crag. This can be split into pitches to suit the party but one itinerary is listed here.
P1: Start up Left Root keeping below the stump, cross Right Root to the ledge of True Blue clipping the thread runner and swing round into Blue Groove, continue across Black Slab below the overlap to belay in Nothing But.
P2: Cross the ledge of Whole Truth, grovel round to White Heat, desperately clipping the ring peg, and bridging to the large block between Dead Heat and Dead Good.
P3: Breathe deep, traverse onto the overhanging bit of Live Evil, reach up to clip the peg (don't exhale on it) and finish - gasping for oxygen - on Coming Up For The Bends.
