UKC Logbook - 'Billy Pigg'

33m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A great introduction to the art of roof thuggery with good gear.
1) 5b, 15m. Climb to the break in the roof and pull over it. Continue to the faultline and step right to a belay ledge.
2) 4c, 18m. Follow a wall and groove to a roof. Go left then back right and climb a corner to the top. © Rockfax

GrahamD	12 Nov, 2001	Show βeta βeta: The roof is very intimidating (even to second), commiting and strenuous although very safe. There is no backing down once commited - it felt very solid 5b to my weedy arms! Good fun.	βeta?
