On the back of success at Hidden Wall, Murray moved his sights along the cliff to less sheltered walls. The rock in this area is less steep than Hidden Wall, and offers both crack and face climbing.
Approach: As for Hidden Wall. At the base of the cliffband, turn left rather than right. Follow the track to the top of the hill (2 minutes).

Surmount the twin horizontal tree roots running along the base of the rock and onto the fused horizontal blocks. A thought provoking move over the bulge and into the hanging corner. Stem the corner until it steepens to the belay out on the arete.
