Moving through the crux of Fern Hill, 5.10c

Description 

Climb up the deep gully until its half way point.

From here launch out left along a difficult hand traverse. The crux moves come midway along this traverse.

At the end of the traverse better holds allow vertical progress.

Continue straight up, on perfect holds, with a little movement left and right until a small overlap is reached. Pass this on the right and finish up a shallow grove.

Classic.

Location 

Located on the left side of Owl Gully.
