If you're on this wall this climb is a must. Worth it for the odd wall erosion formation alone.

The climb to get gym climbers into outdoor climbing in my opium. Great set of holds. Shaped by Ian Powell. Permadraws at the top. Shame about the forever puddle underneath. Maybe a crag are project is needed to end the erosion and bad belays dues to rope owners trying to keep the rope dry (I'm looking at you, me!).
