Description

Unlike most of the climbing in the Gower area, this far west face holds some stacked routes with a 50 ft crack lead at the base and several layers of face climbing that is yet to be bolted but has potential to be put together into multiple pitches. The first pitch has been bolted (animal craggers wall), the second segment is setup as a dangerously accessible TR and the third segment near the top of the mountain is yet to be bolted. Currently the only two main routes are at the base (moss crack and animal craggers wall) but development is occurring.

Getting There

Take Ramona oaks and left on Kerri. Continue on Kerrie lane for about a half mile until you hit poderio Dr. (the second right) Continue a short while on Poderio Dr. until you see a spot with no house making it easy to access the trail behind the other homes.
