15 Parables Of Light

FA: Jim Nevin & N.Towell, 1990

Trad 85m
15 Parables Of Light Right Hand Variant

Goto west side of slab, above large square cut block at sea level and identify the v shape groove cut out of flake. Abseil to there using two to three raps. Find track that skirts beneath large boulders to find first set of rap anchors. Set up new raps where ever possible as the face has limited protection. Once at bottom, slab climb your way out of there. There is very limited protection, with one or two pieces per pitch, and up is the only way out. No one will hear your screams. Bold.
