Rockfax Description
Quality pumpy climbing. Start at a depression left of a large tree.
1) 4c, 26m. Take the shallow depression left of a low flat-topped block and go rightwards to a slim corner at the long overhang. Climb the corner (peg) and then go up before moving right and up past the middle of three short grooves to the ledge. Belay in a corner.
2) 5c, 24m. Climb the corner to a break and move up right onto it. Take the left-trending crack (pegs) to a break. Move up left of a block to a peg. Make thin moves to a ledge. Finish up a crack. © Rockfax

βeta: The 2nd peg on the 2nd pitch, the one that protects the crux, disappeared in dramatic fashion yesterday. Hopefully it can be replaced soon.
