Rockfax Description

1) 6a, 25m, 2) 6a+, 25m, 3) 6a+, 25m, 4) 6a, 25m.
Descent - Walk off left (looking in) down the ramp to the base. © Rockfax

βeta: Felt harder than 6a+. Pitch 4 is a bit of a jungle and locating the bolts can be tricky (I had to paw down bushes to find one of them). Gear will be unnecessary for most on pitches 1-3 but is highly recommended for pitch 4 - even if you're comfortable with 6-8m runout, your nuts will come in handy if you can't locate the bolts. The first bolt on all pitches is quite far from the belay - best to back up to prevent a fairly serious factor 2 fall. A lot of loose rock just below the top anchor (located up and right of the cave). | βeta? | |

βeta: There was a bird of prey in the first wee cave of the first pitch, a little scary. Second pitch had bolts very spaced out at the end so better take trad gear. | ||
