Access: Stopped by staff

This past Sunday, 21/07/2024, went to check out the boulders and I was stopped by staff and told bouldering was no longer allowed in the area due to damage to the areas surrounding the boulders. Not sure how long this has been in affect but staff were surprised when we didn't argue the point.

Sit start on slopers with a high left toe. Cross LH to positive hold on face, then traverse the arête to top out at the apex of the boulder.

Sit start with RH on positive sidepull sloper, LH on the tiniest of crimps, with right toes jammed in the crack. Make one big move and top out. A one move wonder, but with delightful holds.
