Rockfax Description
A brilliant but testing bit of balancy climbing. Be prepared for small wire protection. From the block, move up right to the arete, and climb it on its left-hand side. © Rockfax

βeta: Excellent climbing with an exciting starting traverse when the tide is in. Good gear (small), but brilliantly airy and exposed from bottom to top.
