Rockfax Description
Perhaps the best and most sought after climb on the east coast. Instantly identifiable by the sea of chalked-up holds. The climb primarily consists of pockets and crimps with tufas helping link the spaces between. The final section leading to the cave is a bit run out, although the climbing is much easier. The pump often makes this much more exhilarating. Harder for the short. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Stunning line - best route in Sicily? Amazing wall climbing up the red streaks with just enough tufas to fill in the gaps when the pockets & crimps run out. Finish in the cave after a spicy (but easy) run-out. The stunning orange wall in the centre of the cliff, all the way to the cave. Hard for the short. World class.

βeta: Looks like the crux got harder because there's a very chalked tufa blob at the base of the route and an obvious scar from whence it came, making the crux very intense on marginal holds. | βeta? | |
