Rockfax Description
A tremendous pitch of escalating difficulty. Climb the lower easier-angled face to a possible stance at 15m. Continue up the wall until it steepens, from where increasingly intricate climbing leads to the final bolt. Finish directly up the wall just to the right of the rib to a lower-off. An 80m rope is required to reach the ground otherwise split at the lower-off at 15m. © Rockfax

βeta: Lower off needs in situ biners / fat maillons fitting to protect those bolts from wear. Please ab off rather than lower off on these, or can someone leave a sacrificial biner on the top bolt please? Route is a bit spicey at 6a+, good injury potential if you slip on the slab. Top vertical section is nice, but there's a hard last move taking u 2m above the last bolt., but should be a safe lob. | ||
