53m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
Spicy climbing up the centre of Morning Slab. The bolt of times past has now been removed. Start just before the ground rises up to the left.
1) 5b, 35m. Climb to the first overhang and pull over it into a right-leaning groove. Move up and then step right and upwards with difficulty to easier ground and a peg. Climb up to the second band of overhangs past another peg, and pull through to the slab above. Pad up this to a tree and bolted belay.
2) 18m. Finish up the third pitch of Dawn Walk. © Rockfax
