Rockfax Description
This variation has some independent climbing but its main purpose is to allow the upper section of Alien World Direct to be climbed as a DWS. Traverse the wall into a cave, bridge left and down across the chimney, then move left round the arete. Either make a hard low traverse across the wall (not possible at spring tides) or a slightly higher and marginally easier traverse to gain the Alien... ledge. Move up and right on shelving holds to the roof, then take the traverse line diagonally rightwards, to gain the very edge of the cave. Escape can be made out right here, at S1. For the higher and rather more gripping finish, step left and get established on the awkward seat, then pull up through the roof on big holds and traverse left across the lip into the deep finishing corner of The One-Eyed Man. © Rockfax
