Rockfax Description
14m. A popular eliminate that is a bit of a soft touch, but varied and superb. Climb a thin crack to the end of the initial crack on Z Climb, then continue rightwards into Central Climb. Follow this until it is possible to pull on to the wall on the right where a shallow flake/groove leads to great finishing holds. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description

βeta: Sorry to disagree boys. Although it is an eliminate, and therefore escapable, it is in my opinion still the best E1 on Yorkshire Grit. Name me a better one? | βeta? | |
