The Swallow
Little Fecker 17m (Grade 17?). Abseil to the large ledge and start 5 metres to the right of the second pitch of Little Divil between the two shallow cracks. Direct line straight up the steepening face. Crux near the top. Belay on large ledge at top and scramble up the rocks left to finish. 6 bolts (need hangers) and natural gear. FA D.Reed and P.Maher
Great little addition to this area.
Note: due to the friable nature of the existing flakes and poor natural protection, it was decided to install the bolts to make this route more usable for future climbers.Good to see you finally got back to this one Patrick! Looking back the pro would have been a bit sketch, a good fall would be quite scary. Good little line and well spotted.
cheers Ryan. Do-able for sure but i wouldn’t trust too many of those smaller flake with a nut behind them. Makes it useable for the average Joe I recon.
