Rockfax Description
14m. A weird wandering route, though with some interesting climbing and more interesting positions. Climb to the top of the boulder in the back of the chimney via the crack on the right then balance right to join Right Wall. Climb to the overhang then move left before crawling up through the jammed boulders to an exit on the left. Told you it was weird. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Climb past the right side of the boulder near the base of the chimney and make a delicate traverse right to the crack of Right Wall. Move up to the roof and traverse back left to belay (avoids rope drag). Crawl up and out through the boulders and traverse left to the top of the climbs on the left wall of Lover's Leap. Spectacular finish.
Tony Barley, Robin Brown. Apr/1973.
