UKC

58m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A wondering line but with some thought provoking moves. The optional second pitch is also good and allows The Gallery to be accessed from where Aftermath makes a fine finish. Start below a small tree at 3m that is under a large overhang.
1) 4c, 35m. Climb up to the left-hand side of the large overhang and move up into a corner. Make a rightward traverse above the lip to a flake and take this to the jagged overlap above. Progress up onto the slab above it and join Dawn Walk. Follow the slab above to a bolted belay and abseil station under the right side of the massive overhang. Abseil off continue.
2) 4c, 18m. Move right for a couple of metres and then up to the left side of an overhang. Work leftward to a ledge and then climb a right slanting groove to The Gallery. © Rockfax

βeta: The first crux up was a cool move just past the tree. The slab was cool. Precise footwork needed. Its all there just take your time and 'keep on trucking'. Only led P1 which gets 'lonely' up on the slab :) P2 looks fun and would like to lead sometime

βeta: The belay 'tat' has been recently replaced, so good to go as belay/abseil.
