Solo on Sword of Gideon © ruairidh
The south face gives some excellent rock climbing, minutes from the Applecross road.
Note: as of December 2024 the block in the gully used for the abseil descent (after the Nose and before the Upper Continuation) is worryingly loose. We removed all the tat from it and replaced it with a nut backed up to the peg.
Sword of Gideon is in the guide books as VS 4c, not VS 4b so crag moderator should change it to be accurate as the crux is 4c. SonyaD - 07/Jun/09 |

There is a fair bit if loose choss on this otherwise great crag. Take care with the belay after pitch 1 of Bumblytwo(Severe), the trees are dead and thin so well dodgy, and the block belay moves with a little push. nickinscottishmountains - 23/Jul/06 |
