Rockfax Description
Start at a steep wall below a big roof in the middle of the seaward face of Valkyrie Buttress.
1) 5a, 22m. Climb up the steep wall - towards the left side of the buttress - and pass the roof on its left. Bold climbing follows, up and slightly right, to a good belay ledge.
2) 4c, 18m. From the middle of the ledge, climb up leftwards to an overhung ledge and mantelshelf onto it. Continue straight up a good crack to a loose finish and belay on the fence posts. © Rockfax

βeta: Loose rock at the top. Tito knocked off 2 big stones that flew past me on belay. Pitch 1 is quite nice though.
