The National Trust (who own the Dewerstone and surrounding land) are happy to allow climbing access but ask that abseil descent from trees is not used to prevent damage to the trees.
Dates: 21 April to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Kestrels are nesting on Upper Raven Buttress - it is worth avoiding these rarely visited climbs while the birds are nesting and it is likely that the young will have fledged by the end of June.
Rockfax Description
An interesting, if at times mossy and vegetated, expedition. Start at a pair of trees 8m right of the base of the face. Climb a crack and wall to a ramp and follow it leftwards until a tree/ledge on the right can be reached. Finish up the long corner groove. © Rockfax

βeta: Quite mossy on crack line to the top. I managed to clear a majority while climbing. Foot placement essential at the moment while like this. Great climb, underrated for sure | ||
