This is a serviceable warm-up on the right side of the wall. It sets up a good top rope for P1 of Not One Of Us.

Location

Resume takes the second of two right- facing corners up to an awkward slot.

Protection

Half a dozen draws and a rope.

Climbed this the other day, an excellent warm up with a cool position on the corner of the crag. Really enjoyable! Nov 16, 2001

A good, short 5 bolter with awkward moves and holds that gets you warmed for the gneiss to come. Jun 30, 2002

Very useful comment - thanks Chris - I belayed Chris on this, Neo Quasi..., Air head and P1 of Not One of Us with one gimp hand - it's true, but it's better now.... later - sorry for the useless jabber. Jul 19, 2002

Shmeh... climbed this as my warm-up, not very exciting, and the anchors set up a horrible top rope - lots of sharp edge drag. There are better routes here to warm up on. Jun 8, 2013

Good warm-up route. Really short, but packs a lot of consistent and interesting climbing in. Oct 6, 2013
