Rockfax Description
Committing and a little loose. Start as for Puffin and Pantin.
1) 5b, 23m. Climb the corner to a foot ledge below a crack in the right wall. Move right and follow a hollow flake/crack with much trepidation. It becomes a sharp layback flake which leads up and right to a pinnacle. Drop down into Blood Chimney to belay.
2) 5c, 20m. Regain the pinnacle and climb the groove - reachy. Exit the groove rightwards and tackle the wide crack on the left and belay on a large flake. (Abseil point occasionally here.)
3) 5a, 15m. Move up and left over grassy ledges to climb a dirty crack on the left to join the top of Run Fast, Run Free. There may be a fixed abseil point. © Rockfax
