Routes as trad in Deepwater Zawn

Short crack and arete climb and a high quality deep water solo for the bold.

Start: Left of 'Deep Water' is a thin crack. Start at the base of the crack, right on the water level (there is no ledge to start from!).

Take the rightwards leaning chimney to a tricky exit, then finish up the Muldoon-esque headwall to belay beside the mini pinnacle.

Start: Abseil into the zwan, opposite to 'The Block', and belay on the small ledge at the base (not really pleasant in very rough seas).

Start up Aspro Pink but head left into Deep water. Fist jam around the corner and traverse the obvious crack that splits the buttress, grab a few limpets for later on the traverse and Continue as for Sink or Swim.

Start up the shallow crack around the arete right of the Deep Water chimmney. Follow this to mantle onto the spike/ledge on the arete (crux), then follow the crack just left of the arete. Trend right once you touch into Deep Water. Best climbing past the tower to belay from the top.

Rap down to sea level off blocks. Climb up, trending right, over the edge of the sea cave entrance. Even with good gear, some of the moves feel beautifully exposed.
