UKC

32m.

Rockfax Description
A poor start leads to a better top pitch. Climb (or avoid) the grassy cracks in the broken arete to the big ledge and a stance. Take the blocky continuation in the left wall which eases with height, beware the loose finish. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Significantly cleaned in May 2025 by Rickeden (Hero) - a good route (worth a star) and deserves more traffic. Some dust may remain and the odd wobble hold but is significantly better than it was before.

βeta: Over the last few weeks I have spent 4 evenings cleaning from the top to the bottom of the route. I finished the bottom pitch tonight. It will feel a bit dusty until it get some traffic. The top pitch doesn't have a scary top out now. There is a bunch of dirt on the ground at the start. I will move that once I bring my shovel back to the crag.

βeta: Loose jug near the top, it nearly broke and I nearly needed a new pair of undies.
