Start as for Star Trek beside the tree. Climb the groove and over grassy ledges. Move carefully past a large flake into a steep V-corner. Pull up on blocks and exit straight up. Pretty useless.

Takes the right-leaning corner and wall above. Near a small tree, climb a groove to a ledge, and step round right into the corner. From a grassy ledge move straight up over a small bulge (crux) and into a groove. Through another small overhang on to the top wall, tending left and then right.

On the right of Galactic Wall. Start at the weakness in the roof. Over loose blocks tending L and climb the steep wall. Tend R up the wall exiting on the grassy ledge. Pro availible when mostly needed.

A good route on the small north-facing wall wall to the right of Terminator. Anchor rings.

Just left of the arête that The Tardis is on the right of. Scramble up to the ledge (anchor belayer with cams) and pull through on to the steep wall, moving left following the three bolts. It’s a little easier if you move back to the arête. Anchor rings.

The prominent undercut arête just right of Klingons. Clip the first bolt and reach through the overhang to pull on to the wall. A pleasant finish to the right past another bolt.


 Anti-matter, 17 17 3

Just right of The Tardis.  Easily up the wall initially, to steepening
climbing with good holds to finish. 3 bolts. Joe Arts, 2005.

There are anchor rings for the four routes on this buttress just left of the tree. Single rope abseil to the ground
