Rockfax Description
Contrasting pitches - a subtle wall pitch and an easier (but very exposed) second. There is good wire protection on the first pitch but it needs seeking out. Start by an easy scramble to a ledge on the left side of the buttress.
1) 4b, 15m. Move up the right-trending ramp and continue intricately to good wires before climbing up to a belay on ledges.
2) 4a, 18m. Move right into a slight corner on the right wall and follow this to an exposed position on the arete. Move right and finish steeply on great holds. © Rockfax
