Climb the slippery crack which splits the right-hand side of the
slab as it runs leftwards - poorly protected. Move back slightly
right and then make a short traverse to a good ledge above the
centre of the slab (possible belay). Climb the corner-crack to
a ledge then finish direct with care. It is also possible to move
right round the arete to a chimney with a loose exit.

The right edge of the slab has a series of tiny holds that are
becoming ever more polished. Keep heading left to claim an E4
solo, or escape off right.

Climb the delicate thin crack near the right edge of the slab and
the short-lived but gripping curving flake above which definitely
looks detached! Finish up the short crack.

A bit aimless though the easiest way up the face. Climb the easy
crack on the right of the slab then traverse left to join (possible
stance) and finish up

The impressive and well-named blowy arete has low gear (small
wires) and mostly good holds. It proves to be bold and airy with
some suspect rock.

Climb the wall first left then right. The hard bit is standing on the
only good hold on the lower wall. Finish up suspect rock.

Low in the grade and good, though some of the rock is a bit
suspect. The steep crack has good jams and runners to a step
left where a tricky finger-crack leads to a looser finish. The
original finish was up the tottery wall above the prominent scar.
