The huge ship's keel is exhilarating and photogenic. Stay as close to the arete as possible for maximum exposure. © Rockfax

βeta: Loose rock flake 3/4 of way up. Doesn’t seem likely to come down currently but is an obvious hold. Cracking route | βeta? | |

βeta: Loved this one, nice and easy with lots of options all the way up. Once top-roped my belayer could barely keep up. The only disconcerting moment on the lead was being unable to see where the penultimate bolt was due to the curvature of the arete, but by that stage the climbing is easy enough to just push on through. | βeta? | |

βeta: Not a bad route. Didn't enjoy as much as i thought i would! Probably gonna solo it as will be more enjoyable that way! Nick trad climbing is pointless. If i had my way every rock face in the world would be bolted!! | βeta? | |
