Rockfax Description
80m. A bit circuitous but offering good delicate slab climbing followed by strenuous overhangs. Start at the vertical crack of Clinging On.
1. 45m 5c Climb the crack to its end, then climb up right to an overlap. Move under the overlap into a faint groove, then climb over the overlap to gain a descending traverse-line rightwards which leads to a small niche just left of the large chimney-corner of Creag Dhu Grooves E3 (not described).
2. 35m 5c Follow the crack diagonally left up the slab, then struggle up its continuation through the impressive overlaps.
