Nodos en Cooper's Crag

Named after Cooper the Wonderdog who cheated death soloing the rope traverse.

Beautiful orange corner. First ascent stopped at roof with natural belay immediately right and potential for a longer route on the upper section (which would need cleaning). Currently no anchors for descent so a steep, roped (downwards leading?) climb down to a large ledge with a tree where you can rap approx. 18m to the ground is required to get off.

Start as for Archon and trend right. Quality tricky blunt-flake climbing.

Striking orange face/arete visible from The Pit abseil. Scramble up corner to belay on large terrace. The left line.

One of the finest single pitch face routes at the grade in The Mountains. Stellar. 26/27 - grade still to be confirmed.

Easiest sport route at the crag. Starts 2m left of Archon, but down at ground level just left of chimney. Flake start (stem off the back wall or add 4 grades) then up to huge hanging flake. At top of this swing left across face to arete and up this to anchors under little orange rooflet.

Corner crack 20m further left from Archon with brilliant yellow lichen. With proper sling-fu can be done in one 55m pitch. Abseil from tree at top to anchors of Wizball and then down. 55m rap. Take double cams from 0.4 Camelot to 3 Camelot and double wires. Lots of slings!

1m left of Cooper's Extra Stout, up featured orange wall.

Companion route to Wizball, starting 2m left. Hard start leads to tricky hard slabbing on big holds (?!).

Directly around corner from Nifta. Start at base of flake/crack. Some techy and tricky beta through the bottom section, particularly if there is no chalk. Being drawn around right will end in tears.

Start in the middle of the wall below pockets. Unlikely climbing through pockets up to crimpy crux.

A series of wicked reaches that require unconventional climbing. Pumpier than it looks.

An unlikely trad route following a crack that seems to want to vanish into the face but continues all the way to a natural finish. To access walk quite a way left (facing the cliff) around from the last bolted lines on a fairly clear track. This will take you to a large grey face with an obvious cleaned crack that starts at the ground and goes to a ledge at about 8m.

Start up the wide crack beneath the fern and up to VERY vegetated ledge. From here the climbing gets good and sees you blast up the immaculate finger crack and then truck diagonally rightwards following the crack system that links the series of horizontal breaks to the final wall and seam (very small gear, C3s or tiny X4s). Head up this into the corner and top out onto the nice ledge with the small tree and DBB. Best to bring a second up as cleaning it is painful (but doable).
