Description
A Kawakawa classic on the highest, most exposed section of the upper bluffs. Stunning views from the top. First pitch sport, second pitch Trad.
Pitch 1
All sport, move left after second/third bolt.
Pitch 2
All trad. Weave up the face as you follow the crack. Crux is well protected finger crack mantle half way up. Once you reach the anchor ledge you can rap down, however recommended option is to traverse right underneath the roof (easy ground with an additional bolt) which allows you to get on top of the bluff for stunning views. Bring your lunch and/or a beer. Can walk off from here.
