★ Patience Crack 15

This is a great, well-protected route

Start: about 4m right of a big tree at the apex of the path. Faintly marked 'Pc'.

1. 36m (15) Up nice crack to top of white rock (see topo) with good gear, to overhang, then traverse left to small ledge & up onto a more positive ledge, follow this along Right, for about 18m to base of obvious crack corner (see topo for pitch 2).

2. 32m (15) Up the obvious crack corner, beautiful laybacking, bridging and wall climbing & solid gear. Gain a small stance where Faith crosses wall and belay off tree/bush.

3. 32m (12) Traverse R and up continuation of corner, to finish on ledge & TB. From here, head up Right, across a vegetated scree slope, to join the Caves Route below Trojan.

Modern climbers establishing new routes have taken great pains to ensure any new routes do not interfere with the historic routes established many decades ago.

Retro-bolting of existing routes is unacceptable!

New routes shall make use of traditional protection where available.
