Rockfax Description
One of the earliest and very best rock climbs of its grade in the area. Start at some right-trending cracks at the base of the face.
1) 17m. Take good holds and cracks to a stance and belay.
2) 17m. Follow the crack to a belay ledge below an overhang.
3) 8m. Move up under the overhang and traverse right to finish. © Rockfax
