Rockfax Description
The steep flake-crack splitting the face leads to the large overhang - the central section is both pumpy and awkward to protect. Step right for an easier finish. © Rockfax

βeta: A good route - not as much polish as eveyone moans about and good moves. Loads of gear!

βeta: The new VS 5a*, Primal Void, that crosses this route starting up the blunt arete to the right and travesing left under the rooves to finish up Gavel Neese is very worthwhile.

βeta: I stand corrected, apparently she only got 5 bits of gear, but the principle's the same :-)

βeta: Did it gain on Saturday, it's not so slippery when it's freezing cold! My partner got 6 bits of good gear in, it's not at all run out if you're strong enough to hang around finding them.

βeta: Suprisingly pumpy for the grade, but good climbing.
