Restricted Access
Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 15 March to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Schedule 1 birds are nesting on Sugar Mountain sector, very close to the approach/descent for all sectors of the crag. Sugar Mountain sector is restricted, and unfortunately other sectors will also need to be restricted unless alternative access via direct abseil/similar can be arranged as use of the normal approach will cause disturbance.
20m.

βeta: Fun route, get on it. Solo for 6-7m to the first gear, but easy. First peg has rusted and lost mass, but can be backed up nearby. Second peg (high) seems solid. I feel the climbing is not quite 6B, and well protected where it's hard, therefore maybe E4 6B (soft), or even, dare I say it, E3/E4 6A. This isn't a sport route, as the guide suggests. | ||
