Description 

The crux is getting over the roof and keeping it together for the next 3-4 clips. Great route...Maybe the best in the Sherwood Forest area.


Location 

Start left of Topiary up a short corner leading to the roof.


Protection 

Eight clips and green camalot for below the roof. Lower from a two bolt chain anchor.

Excellent climbing. For what it's worth, even I was able to TR this route without falling. That may have been an illusion. Then, later in the day, I shot 1 under par at West Woods golf course from the tips. Anybody for golf?

OK, but far from the best at Sherwood, IMHO.
