Rockfax Description
A pleasant route which is bold in places.
1) 5a, 44m. Start below the centre of the white slab and climb up through a small overlap on good holds to reach the quartz-covered slab. Aim for the groove at half-height (optional belay on the right). Move up the groove and continue up the slab until forced right into Asahel, follow this back left and up to the ledge. Alternatively, move right to belay and do the Eagle Finish.
2) 7m. As for Africa Rib. © Rockfax

βeta: Yet another incorrect Rockfax route description. The route takes the overhanging groove at top centre of the slab and is tough for the grade. If you've scurried off left or right then sorry but you haven't done the route and can only claim VS. Still enjoyable if done that way. | βeta? | |
