Rockfax Description
The pleasant slab at the right side of the buttress is climbed centrally and is rather lacking in gear, though tiny cams help. © Rockfax

βeta: Enjoyable climb - a very small cam would have gone in the break at 2/3 height, but I didn't have one so put a very dodgy nut in instead... felt more like a solo really. Grade about right I thought.

βeta: I thought the gear was good for such a short route (more like 6 m than 8?). There's a good small cam placement low down and a worn nut slot on the right at 2/3 height that takes a bomber Wild Country Super Rock 2 (do they still make these?) or a small Wallnut on it's side. Neil.
