Rockfax Description
The slim corner in the arete is an intense and rewarding pitch. Pull steeply to gain the corner which leads to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: If you're climbing 5s with beginners, this is quite nervy for the grade! Lovely easy sequence through the crux but it's not super obvious | βeta? | |

βeta: it's a weird one this as it's been listed in the miniguide on rockfax as being bolted and a 4+ for a while now but i was down there a month or so ago and my mate lead it on trad gear and there didn't appear to be any bolts in it. Plus if it's VS 5A why would it get 4+ on the database - surely it should be 5 or 5+? very confusing and possibly someone mixing up routes again? Until the new guide comes out it's all goign to get more confusing i suspect... | βeta? | |
