Description 

Home to many burly steep routes. Testpieces like White Wedding (5.14a), Badman (5.14a) and Villain (5.13d) can be found on the gully's right side, and a handful of slightly easier but still very steep routes such as the classic Toxic can be found on the walls on the left.

Getting There 

The Aggro Gully lies between the East Ship and West Ship outcrops and is the first gully you'll come to after taking a left at the end of the bridge. Approach via a clear trail that snakes its way up the steep entrance to the gully.

This gully can be used to get to the top of the formation or as a descent, but you'll have to cope with a mini canyoneering adventure at the very top of the gully. The Cocaine gully is a better choice in my opinion.
