UKC Logbook Description
7a/+ A technical start leads to strenuous moves over the bulge to good holds and easier climbing to a break. Pull into the niche and reach over onto the headwall to begin an excellent sequence of moves in a superb situation. Top out on the best holds that Yorkshire Limestone has to offer, lower-off the belay in the back wall.

βeta: I have relocated the bolt below the top overlap to stop the rope jamming in the crack.

βeta: Brilliant climbing! Start is bouldery and difficult to work out/ onsight. Extending 6th draw prevents rope getting caught in crack. Ace headwall

βeta: Had a bit of an issue when trying to top-out...rope had managed to completely jam in a crack on lip of 2nd overlap. Downclimbed from the top and tried to pull loose. Eventually had to clip direct into bolt and then still took a few minutes to work it free.
