The Cornerstone Area Guide

  • Contexto de grado: SA
  • Fotos: 1
  • Ascensiones: 42

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.

restricciones

Road is pretty rough generally, so a vehicle with decent clearance is recommended.

As of July 2023 the first hundred metres or so before the river has now been repaired. A rear-wheel drive vehicle with decent clearance will make it. If wet a 4x4 is a better bet.

Not too many good handholds so you have to get creative with stemming, laybacks, smearing and palming. The crux is at the top and is a matter of doing what you can to work your feet up on what you can find. Decent positioning for clipping the chains.
