description

Easy climbing to the blocky ledge to clip the 1st bolt. Balance to the 2nd and face climb to the anchors. Steve Carr, 1980. Dave Ireland and Calum Hudson, 2010....so named because it was heavy rain mixed with HAIL (Precipitation) when Dave was bolting it....and it is on the precipice of this face.
