Rockfax Description
18m. A major classic, the luminous crack is usually dryer than it looks - pity about the pigeon poo. The final bulging section often proves more difficult than you might expect, try bridging it. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Layback and bridge the green corner crack up and rightwards till a hard move into the upper confined corner is possible. The final steep corner maintains interest and is best bridged.
