Rockfax Description
(Old Fox) The attractive twinned groove system in the centre of the face gives sustained and well-protected jamming and laybacking. Popular and worthwhile. Start below a black slab (sometimes wet) below the main corner.
1) N6, 45m. Climb easily to the base of the groove, then layback and jam up the right-hand corner until a harder move leads up and left into easier cracks and a corner. Belay on the left.
2) N6, 60m. Continue up a groove with an awkward hand-crack to a grassy ramp, then climb a short tricky crack on the right to another ledge. Finish up the unlikely looking thin finger-crack, splitting the steep wall above to jugs and an easy finish.
2a) N7, 20m. Revungen (Fox Cub) Step right from the stance and climb the thin cracks right of the arete - tiny wires protect the run-out up the slab above - scary! Take a belay then add another pitch up the rest of Gamle Rev. © Rockfax
