Rockfax Description
A very good pitch. Begin at the large open corner. Take the corner for 10m to a thread and transfer to a ledge to its left (peg). Follow the small rib above until moves rightward reach a thread (not in place) just left of the base of the Yr Herwehla narrow corner/groove high on the face. From a foot-ledge above, (peg) locate a small, thin, left-leading crack and make some intricate moves up it and the wall above to reach a good break (some shattered rock here). Go right 2m and then up easy angled rock and some flakes to a belay on The Easy Way Down ledges. It is possible to descend from the Microserf lower-off after the hardest climbing. © Rockfax
