Rockfax Description
An intricate face climb on great rock. Start at a ledge 3m left of the perched block at the start of Leopard's Crawl. Move up right between two narrow overlaps to a right-leading shallow depression. Follow this to a bulge and flat-topped spike. Move up and right to a groove and take this until a move left gains a slab and the right-hand end of the huge roof. Finish up a corner/groove. © Rockfax
