Dates: 1 June to 31 July

Reason: Nesting Birds

It has been reported that either Peregrines or Kesterels are nesting on the popular route Shadow Wall on Carreg Wastad, with eggs and one unfledged chick on the nest.

As these birds and their nests are legally protected, climbers are asked to avoid climbing the routes Shadow Wall to Trilon inclusive until the birds have fledged at the end of July. 

60m, 4 pitches. If you start up crackstone rib and aim for ribstone crack, but you go wrong and turn left and end up on erosion wall. You can turn right and begin your adventure onto the zig zone zag.
The rock is quite tenuous at places on the little traverse, but it's a bit of a more fun start to shadow wall. Not recommended.
