Rockfax Description
The prominent crack in the side wall of the rubble-filled gully. Start at the bottom of the crack and climb to the top. Steep and awkward but quite satisfying. © Rockfax

βeta: Definitely E2. Sustained and varied - and often greasy at the start. A large (5/+) cam isn't necessary for the top, but save your green camalot for a slot that will protect the offwidth moves. Otherwise it will be very spooky and not much fun. | ||

βeta: Good line and satisfying moves but not impressed with the quality of the rock. Took a surprise fall from an easy section when seemingly solid hold snapped in my hand. Also dislodged a few Bigmac sized blocks which thankfully missed everyone. Big gear for the top crack is not necessary as there's a good horizontal slot that takes couple of small cams. | ||

βeta: Rarely done but really good. Only dry late in the day. Take a little big gear. | ||
