Rockfax Description
Spacey climbing on good holds up the centre of the most impressive section of the crag. Start at a belay below the steep central section of the wall. Move up the slab to its apex and climb the right-slanting corner for 8m to some big holds on the left. Traverse left for 5m to a short crack and good nut. Climb up the crack and steep ground above, slightly leftwards, to the capping roof. Traverse right under the roof to a rounded arete and make an awkward move over this to finish. © Rockfax
