Rockfax Description
Great fun. A short but popular introduction to the flowstone experience. The start is the crux, but save something for the strenny finale. The start may have shed a hold. © Rockfax

βeta: Hard for the grade but great fun. Technical start, first few bolts can be tricky but goes on to a juggy exciting finish. As someone else has said shame it was a short climb. | βeta? | |

βeta: Really enjoyable route and first outdoor lead completed in one. Didn't find the begining overly tricky but the area just below the overhang takes some could footwork! Nice! | βeta? | |
