excellent little crag, loads of routes and great if you want to just practise leading and setting up belays anchors (which is a little awkward on some places), overall easy access and some great climbing.
mlmatt - 04/Apr/07 if you plan to just boulder, go far left on the crag, plenty of tricky problems and its unpolished rock, fairly quiet aswell. Mr Wild - 12/Dec/05 14 routes in one hour, including south butress arete direct! Andrew Emery - 08/Oct/04 A great little crag, unusually (for grit) it abounds with juggy holds, with very little jamming, so it's ideal for visiting with those climbers who are always moaning about jamming cracks (you know who you are ;) Nick Smith - 12/Jul/04 Easy crag for starters. If you plan on top-roping take some gear with you as there is only one stake and very few natural anchors. Good fun and confidence builder. tsunamisurfer - 10/Aug/03 Buttress 1 is left of South Buttress, not Christmas Buttress as implied. Paul J - 01/Apr/03 Obviously, as the name suggests, the wind gets very fierce here sometimes. The climbs are very satisfying though, as are the views. A fun climb to try is to traverse the entire length of the wingather rocks, this takes a while and has a few slighlty tricky sections, and numerous routes! Will Cannon - 11/Dec/02 |
