Restricted Access

There is a loose flake on pitch 6 of Giant's Crawl near the belay - extreme care is needed.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Peregrines have been known to nest on the upper section of B Buttress, above Giants Crawl as well as C Buttress. The last time the birds were known to nest was 2014, but if visiting the crag early in the season please be aware that they could return and report to the BMC if birds are seen nesting.

No description has been contributed for this climb.

βeta: Lead first pitch. Went off route quite a lot. For future reference, don't go all the way to abrahams cave on the traverse, and step left on the the slab about 20ft below the rock spike with tat on.
