Rockfax Description
The meat of this climb is crack climbing and only the start of the route lives up to its name. Start 6m left of the base of the Pegasus corner.
1) 4c, 30m. Climb a faint crack-line rightwards to join a large corner at 10m. Ascend the steepening corner with difficulty to its top and move right to a large ledge and belay.
2) 4b, 20m. Climb easy-angled rock to a crack in the steep wall above a right-to-left slanting break. Climb the crack and its continuation to a wide break, from where a short awkward section of wide crack above leads to a good ledge and belay.
3) 8m. Climb the easy corner on the left to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Very angry and protective seagulls nesting above and right of 1st belay, near Pegasus. They divebombed me to the point we had to abandon the route and escape up another. | βeta? | |
