Rockfax Description
Classic steep climbing and the most popular route on this face. Start 10m left of the Mother Night ledge. Climb up then move right around the first bulge to a diagonal slab. Climb up the overlaps leftwards to the traverse line of Hyper Space. Pull up above and climb direct, keeping left of the short groove, to the upper break. Either finish straight up the wall, or as for Mother Night. © Rockfax

βeta: The original finish had a pair of Fulmar nesting, so I down-climbed and went out right along the Mother Night finish which has better rock quality and I think makes more sense anyway. | βeta? | |

βeta: Threads ok but could do with replacing next season, particularly the one for the belay. | βeta? | |

βeta: I agree, a superb route never that hard but very pumpy, there is a reasonable knee bar before the three close together threads in a hole. I might be wrong but I think the rockfax guide shows the wrong way at the top. I tried to go up a smooth groove right of the last big thread and found it nails, broke a foothold off and fell off, going left is much easier and in keeping with the route. Anybody else found this?

βeta: Fantastic space trip up the main part of this cliff at such an amenable grade, ie virtually "sported up" with all the threads. This would be a very different kettle of fish without threads, more like E6 to put in all the gear at such an outrageous angle. Make sure threads are in good condition or else it will feel like Worf is running you down with The Sword of Kahless! | ||
