Rockfax Description
Popular and excellent.
1) 5b, 15m. Bold moves reach the crack. Power up it until it fizzles out then take the flake to its end and swing left to the stance on Tennessee Waltz.
2) 5a, 25m. Climb the narrowing slab to a small overhang, pass the left-hand end of this then move right then back left to a groove which leads to a worrying exit onto the meadows above. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
The cracked flake line provides some meaty handholds and some satisfying gear placements until an awkward move gains the first ledge (Peg). The superb slabby gangway leads up and right from here in an absorbingly exposed position until beneath a final capping roof. Pull around this and layback to victory. The top is grassy and hollow, take care, the belay is a tree.
