βeta: Just noticed this whole crag has restrictions due to the birds of prey. Which puzzled me to be honest. Feedback from today would show that the birds are happy as usual and very much made it their home long term, bits of pigeon scattered down the centre of the main crag and random kill sites throughout the whole quarry. They are absolutely unfazed by the frquent visits from the local kids. A couple of kids were having a joint up top while I was there, right where the birds normally eat. So it does lead me to offer the arguement that the restrictions on climbers being pointless? It would certainly be a cleaner place if every climber took a little rubbish with them, making it a better environment for everyone. | βeta? | |

βeta: more lovely slab climbing, more sustained than the route to the right, nearly took a massive whipper when my foot slipped on the crux, amazingly saved by another tenous smear which caught my foot | βeta? | |
