Rockfax Description
A pleasant route and the easiest line on the face. Start at a large embedded flake by a tree.
1) 4b, 27m. Climb the rib of the flake then step right onto the main face. Traverse right, avoiding the steep groove, to a thread. Move up the slab, passing just enough gear to gain some quartz jugs at the base of a right-facing groove. Follow a rampline up and right to a steep moves to gain a slab and ledge below a roof on the left. Belay in the corner on the right by a peg.
2) 4a 8m. Climb the clean slab to the left of the slabby groove. © Rockfax
