UKC

26m.

Rockfax Description
26m. Climb the ledgy groove left of the arete to reach the end of a ramp running across the face below the steeper rock. Follow this - scary and delicate - until the final couple of moves of Demerara lead into the easy upper chimney. © Rockfax

βeta: Awesomely good gear for a P2. But very bad rope drag if you place it. Its probably not got a move harder than 4C but the original grade of HVS is probably accurate although a soft one.

βeta: Didn't get along with this one. Bit tricky on the traverse if you're tall, especially on the last bit. Usually plenty of wires left in situ where the second obviously didn't fancy hanging around too long. Nuff said.
