Restricted Access

TO PRESERVE ACCESS follow the approach instructions above - DO NOT PARK IN ESTATE FIELD ENTRANCES/GATEWAYS

** There is a voluntary climbing ban during the shooting season 1st Oct - 1st Feb. While this is not legally enforceable under Scottish Land Rights Act (walking is still permitted along the paths), it is strongly encouraged to keep a good relationship with the estate, who are currently very accommodating of the bolting and climbing in the Heughs. **

12m. The line immediately right of Balgone Quack to a shared lower-off.

βeta: A lot harder than 6a+ and very reachy for the crux between 3rd and 4th bolt, think 6b. If you are on the shorter side seems even harder again. Also feels like the fall onto 3rd bolt from the overhang would be unpleasant due to the slabby part below.

βeta: This doesn't seem like a 6a+ . First to third clip very hard.
