UKC Logbook - 'Marble Slab'

18m.

Rockfax Description
A great route with a hard, well-protected crux. Climb the cracked wall (to the right of the slab of rock at the base of the crag) to the overlap. Pull through this to gain a single crack in the upper headwall. Make tough moves past this to easier climbing above and a ledge. 'Beached-whale' off the ledge via a weakness to an easier finish up the final slab. © Rockfax

milanboez	14 Jun, 2023	Show βeta βeta: Should be 3 stars, mega route! Can't say I agree with the comments suggesting it's similar to 5 pitch route!? Harder crux and then continues for a good few meters with no gear on crimps. Really good but definitely HS and 4b (and much harder than 5 pitch route). Can be done with a 40 meter rope.	βeta?

C Witter	21 Jun, 2021	Show βeta βeta: Pleasant, but Rockfax write-up overeggs it. No harder or better than Five Pitch Route and a weak line on places. Not sure where the tough crux move was, as it's all steady and well-protected.
