An extremely popular classic that follows the beautiful central section of flowstone on very good holds. Climb up to a huge flake of flowstone, and make the crux moves to get established above, where easier climbing leads to the lower-off. USER COMMENTS
It is getting rather polished!!
Ignore the bolts and do it trad for the full Nigel Coe experience ( but lower off!). It will make you appreciate the adjacent bolt routes!!!
A GREAT CLIMB FOR A BEGINNER. I THINK IT'S NEARER GRADE 4
Don't know about a french grade but easy HVS 4c perhaps. Polish doesn't detract from quality.
First ever lead! Still go back for more.
Some of the wackiest holds ever, a stunning climb. However the coastpath is getting more and more dangerous, best avoided if damp/wet.
lovely climb
getting rather polished? guess who's to blame!
I don't think it's polished at all. feet seem solid all the way up and all the handholds are huge...
A good route, fair in the grade......
Crazy rock formations and a great first lead, must do for aspiring jug lovers!
First bolt is no longer there (14-Nov-2004). Just two holes and some powdered flowstone where it was.
Top lower off bolt has worn about half way through
Andy Long has replaced the belay bolts. Good work!
Awesome route, great fun!
if you are six foot this is a four.
If you're under five foot is it 5+?
Absolutely Gr8 LUV IT
Route to right is Crocadilia 6a
Crocadilila is a reasonable climb but some blinkers are needed in the middle section where the wall is climbed on excellent flowstone jugs, NOTE take care near the top just below the flowstone cornice where a largish hollow flake sems a bit suspect. Warn those picnicing below.
yeah done this one on sunday. great route but the move between second to last and last single bolt is a bit commiting.
great climb. lovely rock 1 of my favourite climbs as a 5.
Crocodilia - Crock-of-****ia more like! Don't waste your time on another blinkered filler in unless you really are bored...
Not that polished, great juggy holds including some classic undercuts, and enough solid feet placements. Yes commiting move with the leg hook thing but not all that difficult, just a bit akward.
A lovely route, very nice interesting holds on flowstone, fairly well protected, though the first bold is missing, and think 5 is the right grade. There is a new bolted route, not marked in the Rockfax guide for the area, just to the right, so be sure you select the right route!
one word somes this route up WOW amazing climbing all the way around the 6th bolt make sure you huge the route lol have fun if u climb this and if you do just stick ur hands in there are jugs everywhere probably the reason i loved it so much!!!
Brilliant!
Totally jug-tastic!
The first section makes you get a bit lazy, laced with wonderful holds, then it suddenly steepens and it feels a bit hairy. Good route though and probably a fair 5 with 2 stars. |
