Dates: 15 February to 31 May

Reason: Nesting Birds

2023 26th February update: The Ravens do not appear to be using the existing nest in Gardoms Unconquerable - however one more check will be made in case they are late starting, so please be observant and report any sightings if you are in the area.

In recent years a Tawny Owl has nested in the Layback Crack/Flake Crack.area - it is not known if they are present in 2023 but please keep your eyes and ears out if climbing in this area.

 

10m.

βeta: A very awkward climb. The jams are never quite positive enough. And the crux I found wasn't the start but above the nice first big ledge you get too. It's easy to get too far left or right when the answer is to put a foot in the crack get a good fist jam and push up.
