20 | ★★★ Icarus
Sustained on a impressive line, up higher at least... The steep crack on the S face of Upper Battlements Column. Most people rap in and climb the top 2 pitches only.

24 | ★★ Minds Eye
| 70m, 2, 20 | |||
15 | The Cordoban
| ||||
27 R | ★★ Duckling
The line just left of Killer Canary. Up corner crack via. stems and laybacks to a flared crack on the face. Awesome but runout climbing past fiddly gear leads to a short flared crack before joining Killer Canary after it's traverse. Small offset Aliens pretty much essential to protect adequately. You can start from the grassy ledge at wide 16ish but it's not that great, a small ledge about 12m up is comfy and avoids it. FA: Feb 2019 | 30m | |||
22 | ★★★ Killer Canary
A nice line up the crack and arête just L of Where Eagles Dare Not. Probably best to approach from above to avoid the fist pitch.
FA: S. Parsons, 1982 | 50m | |||
18 | Bad Attitude
| ||||
20 | Days of Future Past
| 50m | |||
23 | ★★★ Hakea
A steep, sustained and challenging crack that varies from a small seam to hand width, including v-grooves and a short chimney. Seeps longer than most climbs in the area. Climb the wall and thin seam to a thin corner, passing the bulge with finger jams. Continue up the thin-hands v-groove to pass another bulge at half height. Continue jamming up the second v-groove (thin seam) and short chimney above, then pull around a huge overhanging flake to a stance at the Hakea tree near the top. Either ascend your fixed rope for ~8m (recommended approach), climb awkwardly past the tree, or abseil-off the tree back to the ledge where you can abseil from bushes or down climb (grade 14) back to the base of Cossack column. The crack has been thoroughly cleaned as of Jan 2023, which should keep it tidy from moss for the coming years. | 40m | |||
19 | ★★ Sassanach
Starts off the Hakea ledge about 3m left of Hakea. Best accessed by rapping in (~55m). Lots of wide hands and fists, with perfect knee jams, and a couple of shrubberies. | 50m | |||
20 | The Word Was Made Flesh

The crack-line up the front of Cossack Column.
FA: Ian Lewis & Kim Carrigan, 1974 | 60m, 2 | |||
