Long sustained pitches up 130m face of mainly vertical cracks, superb Granite but a small rack of friends/nuts neede to supplement the sport bolts which are quite run-out. Approached from Salvan, up on the hill, with descent to start of routes by abseil (rather than steep path) strongly recommended. Also a single pitch crag at the top.
A good map to some of the areas (theres a lot) found in Plaisir West Band II (2025) Zoomer - 01/Aug/25 |
