Rockfax Description
The front of the Seaward Face is taken centrally by this well-positioned line. Start by negotiating 'The Crevasse' and then traversing 7m to a stance in a small corner.
1) 5a, 20m. Move up steeply leftwards through a small overhang to a flake in the wall above and then on up to a horizontal break. From the horizontal break, climb up either on the left or right to a good belay ledge.
2) 5c, 10m. Above the stance is a corner with a thin black crack in its right wall. Gain the crack, either direct, or from a ledge on the left, and climb it to a ledge and belay.
2a) E3 6a, 10m. A good variation up the corner to the left.
3) 4a, 20m. Finish up the groove and broken ground above. © Rockfax
