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: Huge wobbly block on the second pitch. It is the top block just before you move left to the small ledge below the small roof (where the route is shared with Meshach). | βeta? | |

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? | |

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