Rockfax Description
A good way of experiencing the groove of The Fly without its hard crux. Follow The Fly to where it steepens, then swing out right and follow a ramp to a crack and a fixed belay. © Rockfax

βeta: Currently (Feb 2025) the lower groove has been cleared of vegetation and should be enjoyable, a couple of grass clumps after you break right but looks ok up to the now fixed bolted belay/lower off (place by GG 2017?) above this the cliff returns to nature!

βeta: Not great and can be vegetated early in the season when the top section is harder than expected.
