Pillar on right of Margaret's Leap. Bound to be a classic.
Start in the middle of the space at the base of the pillar. We left room for another route to the left. Good fun climbing on solid rock (15/16). Belay on small wires on a ledge at the same height the resurgence.
Directly up step rock on to easier ground to belay when kicks back. Good bollards for top belay. |

Left hand end of Margarets Leap, where major rock wall which is slightly scalloped. Climb up cracks at first into slightly overhanging section keeping a relatively straight line. Pass difficulty with s slight move to the right onto easier ground. Belay high up to the left near the crest of the buttress. Short second pitch onto easy ground. Rock OK, but there is the odd loose rock. Route might be longer as first ascent was from a substantial snow base.
