Night firing normally occurs on Tuesday & Thursday but may also alternate to Monday & Wednesday.
A major rockfall occured here in 2014 and most of the actual point itself no longer exists! Many routes have been obliterated. A considerable amount of loose rock remains and great care is required for anyone venturing here.
Rockfax Description
A Pembroke favourite which gives good climbing; it can get a bit congested on Bank Holiday weekends. Start below the centre of the slab. Climb the slab to where it steepens. Move up rightwards up some cracks then climb straight to the top. © Rockfax

βeta: Totally disagree with you Al - I spend the whole time in the corner looking at the middle of the slab, and it turned out to be just as good as it looks. Wow, wow, and double wow. Superb route that just allows you to pick where you're going with gear when you want to be bothered with it. Bottom to top felt almost like one contiuous movement, which puts it in the top routes of the country. Simply brilliant. | βeta? | |

βeta: Nearer Severe than HS, loads of good gear and a good confidence boosting lead with bags of atmosphere. The corner is a better though! | βeta? | |

βeta: Should really be approached by scrambling down Bomb slab and traversing across at high tide. At low tides just walk in from the East side. | βeta? | |
