Rockfax Description
An adventurous and reasonably well-travelled line. Start at a boulder, right of the large tree growing up against the face. Climb to and up a groove to a tree at 9m. Climb the crack with two small overhangs above. The crack ends at a ledge (junction with The Crack). Move right and finish up the pleasant corner. © Rockfax

βeta: I actually think this one is best done in 2 pitches (belaying on the ledge behind the big tree 10 metres up), to reduce rope drag and because the belay trees are a bit of a way back. Above this ledge there a 3 short cracks (though LWV only mentions 2!) - start in the middle one and switch to the left-hand one after a couple of metres. | βeta? | |

βeta: I accidentally took the middle crack, I stead of the far left one, which felt a bit harder than 4b. There was lots of polish the way I went up so I\'m definitely not the only person to have done it this way. Really fun, well protected. | βeta? | |

βeta: Abseil tree is well alive. It has several loops of tat around it and a mallion to abseil from. I am not sure which tree the other feedback is talking about. | βeta? | |
