Restrictions normally apply from the route "Black & Blue" to the far south side of the crag ("Freshly Dug") inclusive - all routes between and including these routes are usually restricted from Feb 15th until July 15th.

Rockfax Description
A good airy upper half is preceded by a serious lower section. Start up broken ground and then move up to an overlap at the horizontal break. Pull through the overlap (poor peg), and push on carefully up the awkward wall to gain another peg. Easier moves gain the base of a scoop and much better rock and protection. Climb up the left wall of the scoop and exit with care. © Rockfax
