Rockfax Description
35m. Originally described as separate variations to Kestrel Crack, these two pitches make a fine route at the grade.
1. 25m 5a Climb the left-facing corner well to the right of the normal start to reach the right-hand base of the huge flake. Move left and climb the outer edge of the flake to the bay.
2. 10m 5a Go right and climb the front face of a steep buttress via cracks and a slim corner. © Rockfax
