On the left side of this cliff, just a few metres from the bottom end of the buttress it forms, is an overhanging wall. Climb this onto a small ramp that leads to an obvious weakness/crack through a second overhanging wall. The small loose block in the crack provides the crux. Ray Button, 27 March 1983 |

Pronounced key-och: a gable shaped piece of rock. This is a superb climb and starts just right of the bottom of the buttress. @todo: Not sure about split of lengths, but 70m total in text

A strenuous, awkward climb up the gently overhanging wall to the right of Cioch. Struggle up to and around the dubious-looking flake. Often top-roped. A good belay can be arranged a few metres below the ridge. Merv English, 1974 (had been previously top-roped) |

Strenuous. Climb directly up the steep groove and over a small overhang at the top to ledges. A better alternative climbs out onto the right-hand wall, and up to big holds, then back left to the overhang. Merv English, with OPC students, 1973 |

Start just left of an easy angled corner and climb straight up to a groove notable for a little jug handle formation at its base. Up the groove to a good spike belay. Noel Sissons, 1972 |
