Description Suggest change

The obvious feature of this wall is the hugh dihedral of Cenotaph Corner, perfectly framed by its left and right wall - along with the corner itself these walls have some excellent and very steep face climbs (Memory Lane, Left Wall, Resurrection - Lord of the Flies, Right Wall, Cemetary Gates). On the wings there are some slightly more moderate routes, Flying Buttress on the right, and Spiral Stairs and Dives/Better Things on the left.

Descend to the right of the crag.

Getting There Suggest change

Park at the Cromlech Boulders and hike up the steep loose trail to the base.
