Rockfax Description
A memorable climb, its two upper pitches especially containing some great climbing. They are split by an exposed belay. Start at the base of the reddish left-slanting rake.1) 26m. Climb pleasantly up the rake to a small ledge where it steepens.2) 4b, 12m. Step up and then pull up right on good holds to a small slanting overhang and make a tricky move past it to a good ledge. Move up the wall into a slabby bay and traverse left to good wire belays in a crack. A great stance.3) 4c, 20m. Climb the technical crack and corner above to finish. © Rockfax

βeta: terrible rockfax description for p2, and I am not the first to make this mistake judging by the amount of chalk/clearly used holds/gear on p2 of paradise (??) description should indicate climbing well up above the belay before pulling right... unless the way I climbed was correct in which case it should mention the slim corner-slab and difficult moves left to rounded jugs... but the topo does not indicate going this way, to be fair | βeta? | |
