Access Issue: Requires trespass (walking across train bridge) to access Details

Walking across train bridge is technically trespassing. There is no way to reach this crag that does not involve using the train tracks.

Description

From the west end of the rail bridge, climb corners to gain the slab, then follow the slab to the summit.

Location

This is the only known route on the tower to date.

Protection

Protection is scarce and the climb is usually soloed. A few trees on the face can be slung. Slings can be placed around the summit to rappel from. You might get the odd nut or piton in, in a seam.
