Length: No length recorded
First ascent: K McGee, P Tinney. 01/05/21
Route Description:
5b/5c. 52m -A long wandering pitch so be careful of rope drag. This takes the crack on the right edge of a leftward curving overhang which is located directly behind the tree at the rock step on the main grassy ramp. Climb the wall to a good stance then follow the rightward curving crack/flakes until a delicate move right leads to a stance below the overhang. Traverse along the thin horizontal crack leading from the top right of the overhang into the next corner. Climb this to the top and then continue up the easy corner crack and slab which leads up and right. Belay at the flake at the bottom of the main slab. 5a/b. 25m. From the flake follow a line of small holds across the slab to reach the Classical Revival crack. Climb this and then hand traverse with increasing difficulty along the first crack which leads across the slab to the belay ledge below the overhang. 5c. 22m Climb the corner to the right of the overhang.
