Description Suggest change

One of the classics of the quarry, this route shimmy's up an old bore hole used for dynamite blasting, a reminder of the quarries past.  The route is pretty consistent all the way up until, maybe 2 moves before the chains, the "dynamite chute" has eroded away into a smooth semi circle. On top of this, the move past this section is supported by a very sharp foot inside the chute that will legitimately cut into the rubber of your shoe. This route is iconic for this crag. 

Location Suggest change

On the first real face of the quarry. It is very difficult to miss because of its outstanding bore hole feature. This route tops out at the second set of chains on this face. Top rope setup can be accessed via the first rappel area on the climbers trail above the quarry. 

Protection Suggest change

Bolted chain anchors. Very limited trad protection.
