Rockfax Description
Pumpy climbing up the crack cleaving the wall. Where it thins, go direct, runners and holds keep appearing. Escaping out left before the final section is more like a stiff HVS. From the ledge select a way on/off. © Rockfax

βeta: if you pull left you will miss the crux and up to there pretty strait forward and not very pumpy, if you like jams! | βeta? | |

βeta: Lovely jamming. Very hard work at the top though - had to slink off left for the easier finish. | βeta? | |

βeta: The gear is too good for E1, nice and steady till the top where it really kicks in. Don't hang around too long or you'll get pumped! | βeta? | |

βeta: The direct finish is simply superb. Very pumpy climbing, with some technical foot work. There may be birds nesting in the recess at the very top - beware! | βeta? | |
