Description

Black Beauty is a vertical black granite face with numerous flared cracks to play on. It is vertical for the bottom half of the cliff band then there is an almost-flat ledge before the slab above gets steeper as it goes up to the top.

All routes can be toproped either after one is lead or by rappelling from the top of the wall (there are chains) down the slab to the top anchors of the routes.
