UKC

28m.

Rockfax Description
A decent line. Start as for Tension but follow the crack rightwards below the large roof until you are met with the final bulge. This provides an intimidating but memorable exit. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A good deal more tricky than Tension beside it and rather hard for the grade. Steep crack at end a bit fingery but good juggy holds for stepping out from under the roof.

βeta: Hi all, if someone is climbing Black and Tan or Tension today and you find a pearl earring at the base it belongs to me! Lost it yesterday. They were my mums so bit sad I lost one! Please keep an eye out and drop me a line if you spy it, I suspect it’s long gone :(
