Restricted Access
The rock varies in character from typically quarried on the lower tier through to more abrasive rock on the upper tier where blasting has uncovered large tracts of calcite-encrusted rock which almost feels like natural limestone. As with most quarries, extra vigilance needs to be exercised by both climber and belayer here given the blasting activity which has created potential for loose rock.
Don't swim in the bright blue toxic pool (as if you needed telling)!

βeta: This route has never tackled the roof, it must have always come in from the left side. You can do an eliminate up the rib on the right side of the roof at around 6b but it is an effort to avoid touching the holds around the crack on the right. | βeta? | |
