UKC

Rockfax Description
The impressive corner on the right-hand side of the headwall is a pumpy exercise with good protection. Start up just left of the corner and as the corner rears up, make hard moves up it to gain the final groove. Finish up the groove. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
The main corner, a great line and trickier than it looks. Climb left of the corner on lovely holds until it steepens up, then determined moves with thin footholds gains the upper groove and a still tricky finish. Top pitch only, accessed by abseil.

βeta: We called it Falcon Crag Corner, no guide book, didn't know the grade. A local lad from the Hotel in Keswick told us Paul Ross (his hero) had climbed it. I got the top pitch and was chuffed to get up it as an 18 year-old. Went to the Lamplighter that night but didn't tell him I'd climbed it.
