Rockfax Description
40m. Climbs a steep crack springing from a cave. Sustained, strenuous and technical with fiddly protection. Start below the cave.
1. 35m 5b Go through the cave roof and gain the crack and climb it past a wilting rusty peg and a spike runner disturbingly far out right. A difficult move where the crack closes brings better holds, protection and respite. A final steep wall leads to the large grassy ledge. Alternative start from the left is 5c.
2. 10m 4c The wall behind at its highest point.
