What's here

5.6 to 5.10, with no single grade dominating.

  1. 2 5.6
  2. 2 5.8
  3. 1 5.10

Counted from the 5 climbs here that carry a grade. Shown only where there are at least 5 of them — below that the shape is noise.

How well located

Not located 5 

No route here has its own point yet. The map pin is the crag. At the wall? Survey it: 30 seconds per route.

The order of the climbs along this wall is known from the open catalogue, so a few surveys go a long way: standing at First Chimney, Groovy Slab (2 climbs, about 60 seconds) would place up to 3 more climbs between them. Survey the wall →

“Up to” because the estimate between two surveyed routes is only used when they turn out to be close enough together on the ground.
