UKC

25m, 2 pitches. A brilliant climb and well protected throughout. The first pitch is mossy and largely uninteresting, but be sure to place some gear before the ledge to protect your partner. The 2nd pitch starts with a long juggy slab with more hands and feet than you'll know what to do with. Climb the split block at the top of this with ease and then step out to your right on 'The Plank'. Take a moment to turn around here and enjoy the exposure. After walking the plank follow the Gully to the top and tree belay.
