> One star - Very good climbing in its category
> Two stars - Excellent climbing, worth a detour
> Three stars - Exceptional climbing, worthy of a special journey
We have done a similar thing in the recent Rockfax books, on the maps the size of the locator star is a measure of how good the crag is,
