Rockfax Description
Exposed and atmospheric climbing that finishes with a breathtaking stride over the top of a zawn. At the far east end of Flake Ledge is a narrow zawn that has a wide corner-crack in its west wall, start here. Climb the awkward corner to a roof and step right to below a crack. Climb the crack with difficulty to another overhang and move right to above the zawn. Bridge out right and pull up to easier ground that leads to the top. © Rockfax
