UKC Logbook - 'Stoat's Crack'

Rockfax Description
A long climb with some difficult and committing moves, plus a good covering of vegetation in places. Much more of an undertaking in wet conditions. Start at the base of the wall.
1) 25m. Gain a heather ledge/terrace and take the wide corner-crack until moves left reach a stance.
2) 27m. Move left to below a groove and make some difficult moves up it, and the corner above, to a stance and belay below a large overhang.
3) 24m. Move left and take a scoop to a vegetated ledge. From the left end of the ledge take a vegetated crack rightwards to another large vegetated ledge. Belay on its right below a slab.
4) 26m. Climb the slabs heading leftwards midway to finish. © Rockfax

EH2000	21 Sep, 2024	Show βeta βeta: Pretty bold and exposed in places for HS, but probably 4b at the hardest points (If you can find the holds hidden in the vegetation and lichen). First pitch was still soaking after a week of dry weather but the rest was dry enough.
