Rockfax Description
A good route with a strong line. Start at the base of the wall between two trees (as for The Original Route).
1) 4c, 10m. Climb the wall and thin crack on the right to a ledge.
2) 4b, 10m. The corner leads to a good ledge and belay.
3) 5a, 23m. Climb the groove left of the undercut main groove to some gear, then move down and make a technical traverse right across into the groove itself. Climb the groove to where it opens out and belay.
4) 4c, 25m. Move up and out left onto the arete and follow this to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Takes ‘the line’ of the crag from base to top & interesting all the way. Worthwhile. | ||
