The buldging wall and seam right of Stopper, past 2 FHs to DRB. Small nuts and RPs and cams. A true test piece of trad climing which defied strong lead attempts for 4 years until it went free. Originally had only 1 BR until repeated falls onto a #2 nut destroyed the placement

Trad and mixed routes abound here with the occasional sport route. A number of routes are readily accessed to set up top ropes. As an older crag, the grades may feel quite stiff, so take this into account. The crag is within a national park, so no dogs, no smoking and use the toilets if you need to go.
