< None | The Quarry - Centre >
The left side of The Quarry is split into two walls of compact, steep rock that see quite a lot of attention. The steepest area around Sugar Ray is extremely sheltered and may provide some dry rock during light rain, whilst to the right the less steep and easier lines dry very quickly. Some of the easier lines are a touch runout. Guidebook page 298.
