Climb left of Massacre to the big ledge. Take the obvious left trending crack on amazing holds to the stopper overlap and the crux. Finish on a high. Good gear - physical climbing.

2. MASSACRE 20m Open Project

The line of 7 bolts up the steep overhang - stays dry

Lower arete and face to steep featured crack direct. Hard boulder crux at 6th.

3.V STRONGHOLD ARETE ** 20m 7b

Avoid the hard climbing on Stronghold by escaping right at the 6th to the Arete. Follow this on good holds to re-join Stronghold above it’s stopper crux.

4. POTENTIAL LINE

Left gully slab and face. Easy moves, bold positions, always wet -

5. HALBERD ** 18m E4 6a

Climb the obvious overhanging Arete forming the right-hand side of the gully. Starting on the right, weaving left briefly before transitioning right again and enjoying some great positions high up. Finish direct trusting to slopers, granite ripples and skrittle.

7. AMBUSH ** 19m E5 6b

Take the obvious groove up the ramp. From the top of the ramp launch left onto and across the steep headwall to gain the thin vertical crack just right of Patriot. Boulder up this to an exciting finish trending right on slopers. Good cams.
