Sunset Boulevard * * *

Location: The Crow's Nest
Grade: S 4a
Length: 25m

First ascent: Alan Tees, Richard Smith 9/04/81

Route Description:

Climb easily up left to a big ledge. A short steep wall leads to a higher stance under the overhangs, step up left, across a gap, and gain a short hand and foot traverse out onto the nose. Climb the arête on a great situation to the top. Protection on demand! Descent is on the other side from the waterfall, look out for a small track down through the trees etc.

For those with a GPS, the grid ref is 35871 98908. Its about 10 mins walk up the glen (a lot of clearing being done at present so there are machinery tracks and a lot of debris), ascend up left, at a flat rock, where you hear a waterfall. Beat you way up through the jungle.

A hidden gem. A very hidden gem! Good climbing with great rock in an amazing situation. Surprising that it goes through such spectacular rock at this grade. Might be difficult to find without Alan's help - he has a GPS reading. We followed a little stream after the flat rock!
