A lovely setting, the rock is generally sound and well protected dolerite with sturdy steel stakes at the top for belays. Add to this that you are climbing on a hill steeped in borders history. Being mainly in the lower grades, many of the routes have a nice flow to them. Doing them all in a single visit would not be too arduous and would give a satisfying outing. The downside is that the crag can often be covered in furry licken. Some of the routes can also feel escapable and there is a lot of good scrambling on the crag.
Although the crag has been climbed on for many years it is a credit to Micheal Haywood and Davey Battle for documenting the routes.
Park at the end of the forestry track opposite west lees farm. Take care not to obstruct the track. Room for 2 cars. Follow the track uphill until signposted left towards Ruberslaw. Follow the faint path through this section of woodland and then head southwards across a couple of fields until the crag comes into view.
