Description Suggest change

This buttress is pretty famous - being so close to the A5 the climbing tends to be quite polished due to the years of nailed boots scraping their way up. Mostly slabby by nature on the main buttress. Standout climbs here are Soapgut and ?Milestone Direct? (which is a classic).

Getting There Suggest change

This buttress splays out at the foot of the north ridge, on its west side. Park beneath the north ridge, or the pull out a little further on and hike up the rocky trail to the foot of the buttress.
