Restricted Access
Limited parking. Do not block passing places or the crofter's vehicle access to the moorland on the opposite side of the road. Approach through a gate a couple of hundred metres up the road from the isolated cottage.
Some seasons there is a cormorant nest on Spantastic, and another nest down and right of Lucy in the Sky. Check before throwing in an abseil rope.
This climb is on the South Stack, to the south of South Tunnel Buttress.
An exciting route traversing out across the top of the North Face. Start at the right (north) of the rock ledge and follow the excellent stepped corner to the right of the arete by making a series of fine mantelshelf moves. Above this, place good protection and then trend rightwards on excellent, though worrying, flake holds to finish at the top of the north face.
