Abseil from the top of Brazen Butress.
This crag is not in the MoD range. There are some bird nests in the Chimney area ( behind Brazen Buttress) but climbing is unrestricted at present as long as climbers minimise disturbance - i.e. don't hang around any longer than necessary where birds are flying in and out of the area. Bird nesting can vary a lot here from year to year - please do a visual check before starting your route, particularly around 'The Cracks' to 'Star Gate' area. A sign will be placed above Brazen Buttress if there is a seasonal restriction in place and this website will be updated.
Dates: 1 March to 1 August
Reason: Nesting Birds
Rockfax Description
Yet another steep and hard route. Start as from the ledge of Mother Night. After pulling around the first roof, make a hard move up onto a hanging ramp above. Climb this delicately to a rest at its top. Pull up above then make a hard move to a good side-pull at the base of an open groove. Climb the groove on flake holds and pull rightwards around the top bulge. © Rockfax
