UKC

Rockfax Description
A great line and a great climb. Start about 9m right of Whit's End Direct. Climb a groove, then move left for 4m prior to heading up and back right to a ledge at the start of a long crack-line (possible belay). Climb the long crack and sloping corner on the left at its end to gain the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Superb route in a great position. The traverse into the groove is tricky

βeta: Great route but we wanted to do F Route but it was green, mossy and seeping even after 4 days dry weather. Is this normal? If so we’ll wait for a longer period of dry weather.
