Rockfax Description
A good diagonal line leading to a fine finish. Start below the chimney of Shadrach.
1) 4b, 30m. Climb up left over ledges to a small short right-facing groove. Climb the groove to where it becomes a massive flake and follow it left to a small corner. Climb up this and then move left to gain a rib which leads to a small ledge. Either belay here or arrange gear and move left to a tree.
2) 4c, 25m. Move up and left to the corner, bridge up for 3m to a crack and then pull up and right onto a ledge. Move up steep rock on good holds, stepping left onto a sloping ledge below a final rib. Climb this direct to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Good route. P1 is steady away with some nice exposure. P2 was steep with a couple of tricky moves which felt high in the grade but has hero gear! **

βeta: Lead the last pitch only as I didn’t start the first pitch correctly and I ended up doing the first pitch of Meshach instead

βeta: The belay is directly under the loose block, probably shouldn't be climbed until it's sorted Flakes on p1 sound exceptionally hollow!
