Review
The Rockfax Digital version of the Pembroke Rockfax has been significantly updated for the second time with new photo-topos, new overviews, a new map, and around 100 extra routes including a few new buttresses. It now contains more than 1000 routes compared to the 2009 guidebook which covered only 650 routes. It also has extensive deep water soloing coverage with the majority of the crags from Mike Robertson’s 2007 Deep Water book added to the mix.

The lines on the online Rockfax App Topo are the wrong way round. Herod is to the right on the arête.
Topo for No Man's Zawn is inaccurate in Pembroke Rockfax and CC and Wired guidebooks as well.
