Rockfax Description
Tough to grade (it was Diff for years) and tougher to climb. Jamming is the traditional and torrid approach, laybacking is a more modern way of doing it. Monster cams are useful. "..very tiring and strenuous" - Tom Randall! © Rockfax

βeta: Was curious about this one as the grade always seems to be changing. HVS 6a is a bit of an overgrade IMO in the Stanage guide. Probably more like HVS 5c, although very tiring and strenuous!
