Candle in the Wind

White Hopes
A brilliant companion to Homo Sapien. Tick both of these and you will have had a good day. Start up the next groove up the ramp...

Snakes and Ladders
Another excellent route up the black streak further up the ramp. A bit like life - "small and beautiful".

Sèverine
The original route up the back of the ramp is a tad easier then its left-hand variant, but it shares some of the hard climbing....

Raw
Good technical climbing up the black streak.

The Gold Coast
One of the few good traditional routes at this end of the Drive. Excellent climbing up the cracked grooves.

Poison Rain
Short and hard climbing up the bulge right of the corner line. The bolt is broken and one of the threads is missing.

Sonic Sinbad
A good recent addition up the rightwards curving groove.
