Description
This area is situated a few yards from the west edge of the gorge. The bulk of the problems are situated on the impressive wave of rock that makes up The Alcove. This wall is a fine example of pocketed tuff, and provides a number of moderate problems all with a flat landing.
Other problems can be found on the nearby boulders.
