| 1 | Gandalf | 11 |
|
 |
||||||
|
Climb easily up to the ledge and then up the wide crack on the left, to a spike on the face a little above half height. Stand on this and step right to climb to the top.
|
||||||||||
| 2 | Arête Of Despair | 21 |
|
|||||||
|
Top-roped only. The lack of runners would make this a bold lead. Climb straight up the flattish arête, marked by an obvious patch of orange lichen.
|

| 3 | Baggins | 15 |
|
|
||||||
|
Layback or bridge the bottom corner, then jam and bridge through the bulge to easier ground above.
|
||||||||||
| 4 | Bilbo | 14 |
|
|
||||||
|
The second layback crack has a short, strenuous start before reaching easier blocky ground.
|
||||||||||
| 5 | Shadowfax | 12 |
|
|
||||||
|
Climb the two converging cracks to a ledge, move up to another ledge, then tackle the final chimney/corner.
|
||||||||||
| 6 | Mordor | 12 |
|
|
||||||
|
This left-sloping chimney can lead to the finish of Shadowfax. Alternately, finish up the blocky face.
|

| 7 | Gollum | 15 |
|
|
||||||
|
Climb up to a finger crack, which is laybacked to a ledge. Straight up to finish.
|
||||||||||
| 8 | Unclimbed Crack | 16 |
|
|
||||||
|
Starts as a handcrack but blanks out at the top. Strenuous moves on large holds lead out of the crack onto the right arête. Finish up Frodo.

| 9 | Frodo | 10 |
|
|
||||||
|
Climbs cracks in the slab.
|

The slab right of Frodo.
|

| 11 | Easy Gully | 4 |

| 12 | Rivendell Arete | 14 |
|
|
||||||
|
Climb the arête on the left of the slab (easier if you step right).
