1 Finding The Hole

Start at the high end of the path underneath the huge boulder which Mal de Mer climbs. Start bridging inwards and upwards until you find a hole on the ocean side of the boulder to exit out of. Best described as a once off epic due to there being no protection.

9 ** Peter Pan

A long standing problem. Start at the base of the blunt arete facing the Pleasure Dome, 5 metres right of the start of 'Trois D' Artagnon'. Climb easily to the first FH, then continue to second FH. Try your hardest to reach the third FH, then continue to the roof. Traverse left across underclings and finish up short crack (wire or cam), then onto slab (BR).

21 ** Pleasure Dome

A short memorable '14'. Adding to the excitement is how long will the window last!

Start: Start from inside the Tafoni (umbrella looking rock). Thread a sling through the window, clip and go! Step out then make your way over the top.

33 Sunny Slab

The pleasant little slab about 15m R of Comme Ci Comme Ca climbed by many (including me) believing it was Mer Sea. Sunny Slab is a toprope or solo.

Rap down behind the top of the Buster Hymen block to find a slab that looks about grade 14.
