Slit Crag

  • Contexto de grado: UK

Roca: Rock can be loose

There have been a couple of serious accidents in recent years at Ndeiya, both involving loose rock. Please bear in mind while climbing that rock might break or come off, and rescues from Ndeiya can be difficult and lengthy. If it is your first time, climb within your limits and even on very easy ground use protection when available.

The climb takes the obvious corner leading to a slit-like chimney.

  1. 20 m. - Climb the corner crack going behind the chockstone at the top. The slab on the left gives a pleasantly severe variation, although the holds require a little care.

  2. 15 m - The chimney.

A few yards right of the Slit is a prominent buttress with a fig tree at its foot. This buttress gives three pleasant climbs. Start 15 feet left of the fig tree.

  1. 6 m - Climb the corner and wall on the right.

  2. 14 m - Take the left hand of two chimney cracks.

Start at the fig tree.

  1. 11 m - Climb the corner above.

  2. 15 m - Climb the two noses above

PA: R.J.H. Chambers & A.M. Webber, 1964

Start in a corner below and right of the fig tree.

  1. 9 m - Climb the short slab on the right of the fig tree.

  2. 6 m - Go up the bush gully on the right and climb the chimney at the b finishing through the hole behind the chockstone.

3.6 m - Step up to the nose on the left (part of Tweedledee) then back right and descend into a small amphitheatre. An alternative to this is to climb directly up narrow chockstone chimney, an interesting severe problem.

  1. 9 m - Climb the cracked wall at the back of the amphitheatre on good widely spaced holds.
