The coast has unfortunately been used as a suicide spot and loose kit, clothing etc. lying around has resulted in the coastguard being called out. To avoid this, climbers are requested to ensure loose equipment and clothing is kept in rucksacks on the cliff top and preferably hidden from public view. You could also consider attaching a note to your sacks saying something like, 'Equipment being used by climbers - do not remove'.
Dates: 1 March to 31 July
Reason: Nesting Birds
No climbing between The Tool and Marmolata Arete inclusive to prevent disturbance of nesting birds. If using the Marmolata abseil point, please stay in the corner, spend as little time on top as possible and don't bring dogs to the top of the crag. Restrictions also apply from Sardine Special to Hard Day's Night, Andycap to Raindrop and Quasimodo to Insectitude inclusive.
Rockfax Description
Follow The Tool to its step left, and then continue up the main corner until stopped by a roof. Place gear and climb boldly out over the left side of the roof to finish as for The Tool. © Rockfax

βeta: I climbed into this from mid height by traversing too far on “Children of the Sun”. So speaking for the top section of this route I would say it follows the natural line, but truth be told the climbing and rock is a bit uninteresting and rubbish (but not chossy) | βeta? | |
