Rockfax Description
A great route that is one of the easier lines on Main Cliff, although the approach and climbing are committing and shouldn't be underestimated. Start below a vague line of flakes running up to the corner of The Big Groove. This section can be badly affected by swell from the ferry, so low tide recommended.
1) 5a, 35m. Climb up to the flakes and follow them rightwards to a ledge below a short corner. Climb this for few metres and move left into another left-facing corner which leads to a belay ledge on the right.
2) 4b, 15m. Descend slightly and step left into a wide crack (Peepshow). Follow this to a line of flakes that lead easily up leftwards to a belay below a long groove about 10m higher than your previous belay. The last section is shared with Jaborandi.
3) 5a, 25m. Climb the groove on the left with an awkward bulge to a large stance on the left and junction with Syringe.
4) 4b, 40m. Continue up via easier climbing behind the belay to a ledge just below the top - possible belay if rope drag is an issue. Continue left and up to reach the heather slopes above. © Rockfax

Gives a good view of The Big groove but never really delivers on quality.
