Rockfax Description
The classic of the crag gives sustained and varied climbing. Start below the long arching corner.
1) 4c, 30m. Climb the corner for around 10m and then step right to a small triangular niche (good runner). Head up right to a wedged but solid block (junction with Too Many Hands). Climb more easily up and left to rejoin the crack and follow it to a good stance and block belay.
2) 4c, 14m. Gain ledges just above the stance and climb the corner to the top, starting in the subsidiary corner on its left. © Rockfax
