Good start with a pretty hard crux about 3m up, however the rock in the top half of this climb and that of Dain next to it is very loose and insecure - be careful!

Felt hard and scary, though this may have been due to loose holds and questionable gear.

Rain stopped play after this. Protection low down is suprisingly thin for the grade - I could only get micros in. Top has some loose blocks - beware.

Beautiful location.
TommityP - 09/Jul/10 with merriottmm

Nice climb, quite varied with a comitting crux which could see you bounce off the gully to the left. Good friction though. Quite a few sub size zero nuts. Some loose feeling stuff at the top
