★★ Ariel
![]() i like buffalo slabs...so far. generally the rock in the hump area seems to be pebbly and crumbly but this boulder was pretty bomber. i recommend this climb to anyone...good rock and well bolted. some nice weathered depressions make good stances. | 15m, 3 | ★★ Very Good | |||
17 |
★ Prospero's Cell
![]() this line follows a bit of a corner then finishes up with some slabbing on the arete. the climbing only really starts halfway up and then it's an interesting balancing act to move onto the arete followed by some more serious balancing to make one more move to some stances that are more reassuring. the rock quality makes this climb worth while i think. | 15m | ★ Good | |||
