USER ATTENTION
7pm Friday 6th October - 4:30pm Sunday 8th October
MassonFest 2023 will be taking place.
Although there are arrangements in place to mitigate parking issues (stipulation that event attendees park in Matlock and walk up, or use the shuttlebus service) it is highly advisable that other climbers avoid the crag on these dates to reduce the likelihood of access issues relating to crag parking and general user volume.
As ever, Please read and follow the parking advice below.
Significant rockfall and remaining instability have been reported on the RHS of Red Wall, particularly around the route Fun in the Sun. Loose rock is very likely to remain on this part of the crag so caution is advised to anyone using this area.

βeta: Climbed 16 Sept 2021, the nut and bolt hanger were loose at the roof bolt. I finger-tightened it, but it could use a spanner. | βeta? | |

βeta: Technical start, easy mid section but shut down at the last move . Had to go right off course and then return along the top . Pulling over the bulge is strong but not alot to work with for feet . Possibility 6b or higher finish move | ||

βeta: Sandbag, final move's tough, high smears and poor holds, not recommended if you're not comfortable at 6b I'd say. Seen several parties bail here and end up snaking over to the next route right and stringing them together. | ||

βeta: Tough 6a+. Fun and intricate lower moves with a straightforward easy mid. Last moves are what push the grade, tricky to know what is exactly in. | βeta? | |

βeta: First move is a bit hard but not as hard as the last. 6a+? sure? I don't know how it would be "escaping" right or left as I didn't try that but it shouldn't be the way as I think you have to move at least 1 metre right or left to do something better | βeta? | |
