King of Kings 20m. Sustained and desperate. Gain the hairline crack above the right-facing flake and follow it to the midway break. Step... 2 user comments | 3 Stars Technical Pumpy Fluttery | E6 6b |

Septic Think Tank 18m. The upper wall to the right of Please Lock Me Away is bold and hard, keeping just left of the arete throughout. A couple... 1 user comment | 1 Stars Fluttery | E5 6b |

Glister Wall 10m. The centre of the less-impressive wall to the right of The Golden Tower is popular. It sports good holds and runners. 1 user comment | 1 Stars | S 4a |

The Thumb 10m. Climb rightwards to the stubby projecting block of the Finger then step left and to climb the easier crack. | 1 Stars | S 4a |
