UKC

27m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
Great climbing on a line that is well-loved and well-worn. Start in the corner/groove on the right-hand side of the Freedom pillar.
1) 4c, 13m. Thin climbing up the corner/groove leads to the midway ledge and belay.
2) 4b, 14m. Head up past the initial overhangs and then follow the corner all the way to the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Two pitches (4c and 4b), but can be climbed as one.

The bottom pitch is a slab, somewhat polished and harder to protect (micro wires maybe required).

The second pitch follows a small corner/crack to the top (tree or block belay).
