Rockfax Description
Some good moves. Climb the short wall to a good ledge (possible belay). Climb through the bulge then trend right and back left, following the line of large and well-travelled holds. Either climb direct to ledges and a yew tree, or follow Ten Craters... with a 5a move. © Rockfax

Paul Sagar	21 Apr, 2021	Show βeta βeta: A hold has broken off at the bulge where this route goes direct up in the Rockfax guide - now much, much harder than VS. There is an old peg and a good cam slot level with it but if you fall here you WILL hit the ledge below. Trust me, I did. Luckily enough rope stretch and momentum meant I avoided injury. Higher up, the route now climbs through the yew tree, which is very unpleasant indeed, as said tree is presumably much bigger than when the route was first climbed. Avoid.	βeta?
