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.

approach
From the north-east corner of the power station, follow the sand road up and right, then branch left below the power lines. After a few hundred meters look for a climbers' trail that goes through the woods, then scramble up the (loose) talus. The climb will most likely be to your right as you exit the talus. It starts up a rounded buttress.
descent notes
There is a hiker's trail to the top -- keep left at each branch, and it will bring you out at the power station.
ethic
Be mindful of wildlife, especially in more remote areas.

A bit sparsely bolted, but generally the bolt is there when you need it. If you can't spot the next bolt, taking the path of least resistance will generally work out well.
