Rockfax Description
A stunning and alarming route. Start by the ladder.
1) 6a, 28m. From the top of the ladder, move onto the top of a pinnacle. Head left up the slab and move up again to a small ledge. Shuffle right to a groove and climb this. Move left at its top before heading straight up to belay below the corner of P2 of Scratch.
2) 6a, 30m. Move left around the pinnacle to a groove just left of the arete. Gain the slab above and climb the arete to the roof. Move to the right of the arete and make a tricky move left onto the slab above the roof which leads to more thin climbing. You are eventually forced back onto the steeper right wall. Head straight up, don't slap for the ledge; it slopes alarmingly. Easy climbing leads to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: P1 rockfax is wrong; the original way is from the ladder climb on to the pillar then climb straight up the groove above (old peg, crucial gold dragonfly to back it up), a hard crux. Finish straight up the slab. In the Tremadog guide you go right below the peg and up the rib (safer!) to join the original line | ||
