Description Suggest change

South facing but with walls facing east, west and south. This is the ridge formation that forms Trundle Wall, if Trundle Wall is being used to describe the east facing aspect of the ridge it might be more appropriate to call the entire formation Block Ridge which also has routes both old and new. Block Ridge has east, west and south facing aspects.

Getting There Suggest change

Access can either be down TWA canyon to the base of the ridge itself a nice 5 pitch 5.10- route or via rappels to access Ace of Spades.

I believe the obvious large face is on Alioth. Anyway, Block Ridge and its' associated crags are just uphill on the same side of TWA canyon. [photo taken from tram]
