Description 

The north facing "towers" that appear to be leaning to the right when viewed from the road and thus gave rise to the name of this area: i.e. "faulty" towers, which also happens to be the name of a tv show. The best rock quality of this area.


Getting There 

Standard approach and then head up and right to the base of the towers.
