	21	★★ Over the Rainbow	Trad 9m	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 21st Jan 2018
Gripping! As others have said, for the true red-point this is technically only about gr19, but for the ground-up Onsight, with unchalked holds, water running down the left face of the arête, and in the full-summer sun... the 6m runout above the only gear on this 9m route is rather terrifying. The climbing itself is enjoyable, and it climbed quite differently to how I expected (I was surprised how much time was spent on the arête itself). One I've wanted to do since I saw it on my first trip to the point 8 years ago!

	16	Burning Deck	Trad 9m	Point Perpendicular	Average	Andrew Scott	Sun 6th Mar 2005
Gear is bad above horizontal traverse. Even the traverse break is full of sand! Certainly gave me the true point perp experience, but falling in the pumpy top section certainly not recommended.
	16	★★ For a Giggle	Trad 6m	Point Perpendicular		Jack Hinde	Tue 26th Jan 2016
Irene's first trad second... and fifth climb ever.

Really cool climb, nice bulge at the cave creates some cool moves.
	15	★ Self Raising Flower - with ScoFlo	Trad 6m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Al Brad	Wed 11th Dec 2013
Classic corner climb. Big moves most the way with a bulge at the start. Good rock, good protection and and an amazing view makes this climb worth doing.
	15	★ Burn	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	Average	James	Sun 9th Feb 2014
Climb a weird variant where I avoided the upper crack and tried to stay nr the arete. A little harder than 15.

	15	★ Burn	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Richard Pattison	Sat 4th Jul 2015
Shame it's only 10m
	15	Flextime	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Richard Pattison	Sat 4th Jul 2015
I thought it was quite good, horizontal breaks for small cams. Shame you have to wrestle through bushes to top-out.
	15	Armada	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	Don't Bother	Richard Pattison	Sat 4th Jul 2015
Couple of pointless chossy caves, pulled a football size undercling hold. The top 3m on the arete were nice, but only 3m!
	15	★ Self Raising Flower	Trad 6m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Richard Pattison	Sun 5th Jul 2015
Quite overhanging, but doesn't feel it, you bridge out the whole way with a little cramping small cams in the crack.
	15	★ Burn - with Elly	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Matt Short	Sun 4th Oct 2015
Nice climbing on great rock for the point.

	15	Dry Feet	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular		Kate Ferguson	Sun 12th Mar 2017
Had to fight golden orbs to get down to this and had to fight more at the top of the climb. Climbing was almost worth it until the rock broke on me at the top. Feeling a bit funned out by the end of it.
	15	★ Burn	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Phill Lengyel	Sun 12th Mar 2017
Best in the area

	15	★★ Raptures of the Deep	Trad 25m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Jakob Kapelj	Fri 7th Jul 2017
Steep climbing on scary rock with suss jugs and pro that is hard to find without putting cams behind blocks. Two stars for the location and adventure of it all

Climbing this involved many elements of a good epic: spiders before and during the climb, abseiling into the unknown, rope (nearly) getting stuck when pulling it, chossy rock breaking up, rising tides, and finally (nearly) getting lost on the way back to the car (trying to find a shortcut) and having to beg security to wait another 5min before closing the gate. Somehow we managed to get away with nothing but our girlfriends giving us the classic "what took you so long?" speech. On the serious side: having never been there before we thought it was hard to find the correct anchor points on Kworzkliff to abseil using the description of routes and descent notes. We found a set of ring bolts in a little cave, another set a few meters below that on the face of the cliff, and another one a couple of meters to the right of the little cave, while the route descriptions use the terms "the first, second, and third". The description of this route says to use the 'first', which we assumed was the one on the cave, but in hindsight, if we had used the ones on the cliff face it would have probably reduced a lot of the rope drag when pulling it down. It gets misleading when the description of routes 21, 22 and 23 also recommend using the 'first' set of rings when it's impossible that it is referring to the ones on the little cave. Other things that aren't on the route description, which I think would be helpful: - length of abseil: from the little cave it was longer than 30m. We used a set of 50m half ropes and passed the middle mark by far. I would say it was around 35-40m considering the amount of rope left below me; - the end of your rope may fall into the ocean depending on the length while abseiling. When you pull it down, it will definitely fall into the ocean. Having dry treated ropes was definitely a plus; - wayfinding wasn't easy. Looking at the photo of the routes on a big screen I can see that the route climbs entirely on the right side of the 'arete', but looking at it on my phone it was hard to tell and there's no real description either. Eventually, I climbed in between this and Hook Line Sinker for a good amount of time and ended up on the top bolts of the latter. Should I consider this a first accent? The rock quality wasn't the best either, several loose flakes especially coming closer to Hook Line Sinker; - pro is also scarce at some points. I used almost two sets of cams of most common sizes and a #3 and #4, and a nut or two. Using double roupes also helped reduce rope drag coming out of the belay at the bottom; Not sure what the etiquette here is but I'd be happy to add some of these comments in the route description.

Fun route in a epic location! Climbed the line of of least resistence heading vaugly up the arete with mostly good rock. Nuts and even hexes are good.
