Dates: 1 March to 1 August
Reason: Nesting Birds
There may be a temporary restriction on the route 'Hercules' due to nesting chough - look for on site signs and avoid this route if chough activity around the hole in the brown pillar adjacent to the first half of the route.
Rockfax Description
Climb up the wall just right of Limbo with a hard move to reach two juggy pockets on the right. Continue up left of these to the roof. Pull straight over this on big, but slightly loose, holds. © Rockfax

βeta: The CC guide gives this E3 and I think this is a more accurate grade - hanging around to place gear at the pockets is very pumpy and the crux is immediately above this - if you don't place gear here you're going a long way. | βeta? | |

βeta: The technical but reasonably well-protected moves before and after the pockets make this a worthwhile outing in my view. Just don't hang onto the sanctuary of the pockets for too long! | βeta? | |
