Rockfax Description
A great VS. Start from a small ledge and stance below the centre of the half-height ledge. The first pitch feels quite bold, and the second pitch has two distinct cruxes.
1) 4c, 28m. Climb the white wall to the break. Trend up and slightly right to the next break. Go up to another break then a groove leading up to the centre of the half-height ledge.
2) 4c, 32m. From near the left-hand end of the ledge, a short steep wall has a hard start - good holds and gear above. Move up to the break and go straight up to the next break. Shuffle left along this and then make a hard hand-traverse out right to get established on the wall above. Finish up the crack, exiting left at the top to the abseil station. © Rockfax
