Rockfax Description
The tough thin cracks on the right lead to a huge tree and an easier finish up a groove. The original finish was up the face to the left - this is better but a bit harder and more exposed. © Rockfax

βeta: If you are not 7ft tall the initial cracks are really hard. They are fingery and not great until you get midway when a medium cam protects well. I don't recall ever climbing a 'severe' and pulling really hard on tiny holds. I would think technically the initial moves are more like 4c/5a. Once at the safety of the tree it becomes spot on for the grade and really pleasant climbing. Amazing views!! | ||
