UKC Logbook - 'Wraith'

40m.

Rockfax Description
A great climb but perhaps not as great as it once was. It should be considered as high in the grade. Start below a small niche at the base of the arete. Climb into this then step left onto the wall which is followed easily to some large ledges. Climb the left-hand side of the arete above. © Rockfax

Ariegeois	15 Mar, 2024	Show βeta βeta: The top section used to be quite an awkward flake crack right on the arete. The flake came away years ago in a winter storm. The route is still much the same grade, but the climbing's a bit more elegant now. Definitely one of the best, if not the best, at MCK!	βeta?

salancaster	6 Jun, 2005	Show βeta βeta: Not E2, I thought it fairly hard and pretty sustained - although I climbed the top arete on the left all the way. It took some time and my belayer got wet! I was quite suprised to find no crack in the top wall unaware that the right side had 'dropped off'!	βeta?
