To protect nesting and roosting sites of falcons, Redgarden Wall from the Naked Edge (pitch 3 – top) through Sidetrack is closed from February 1st – July 31st or until further notice. Occasionally, these closures are lifted earlier.
This includes the following routes: • The Naked Edge (last 3 pitches only) • The Diving Board • Centaur • Redguard (last three pitches) • Semi-Wild • Anthill Direct (last three pitches) • The Sidetrack
The route climbs the face between Pansee Savage and C'est La Vie, joins Indereckt for its crux and then PS at its last bolt for its cruxy traverse to the right. Where PS traverses back left, continue straight up the arete and face to the CLV anchors. An excellent face pitch for the connoiseur of the obscure with lots of continuous 5.11 climbing, marred only by the fact that it is both contrived and squeezed.
Protection
Very little on the route, although it could be led with double ropes and some ingenuity using gear placements on the adjoining routes.
