Cornflake Buttress

Cumbria, ENGLAND

Climbs 19 – Rocktype UNKNOWN – Altitude 236m a.s.l – Faces E

Crag features
The rock is steep and flaky, which gives a strenuous and fingery style of climbing. The routes can be sheltered from a strong westerly wind and they generally dry quickly. There are numerous ants in the area and care needs to be taken - leave your rucksack hanging from a branch and not on the floor where it will become covered in ants!

Not had much traffic, Lower Tier is slowly disappearing under moss.

Fantastic situation though.
