Hands Up Wall Guide

A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.

At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

Perfect intro to the joys of granite sea cliff climbing

Solid and compact granite. Offers great friction with horizontal breaks and the occasional crack, though often with rounded holds

All bolts are carrots so BYOB (bring your own bolt-plates)

approach

Walk south for about 800m from the car park and you have turned left at the tee intersection from Moses rock road. 2wd access no problem
