toprope
Climb the shallow incipient crack using it and horizontal seams. The route is very worn due to its ideal toproping situation. 3 good but small nut runners can be found in the crack.

Jam or layback up the first long corner. Either belay here or continue on up the series of short grooves above. The hardest move is leaving the ledge at the top of the first crack.

Start by being repulsed. The first move is an odd boulder problem which can be done either to the left or right of the start flake. Jam/layback up the ramp to the pulpit. Belay (look out for climbers on Great Harry who will want to cross ropes here). Make a long step right across the corner onto the sloping ledge and then climb easily to the top.

Climb the corner directly. It can become very green after wet weather.

Climb the cracks to an odd landing. You can put as much gear in as you can carry, but remember rope drag even on this straight up route.

Climb via a series of short grooves. If you don't find the hidden hold near the top add on a whole grade. The trees don't exist anymore.

Second
Climb the broken cracks near the bottom of the decent path. The first few feet are dirty but the quality improves with height gain. Beware the "Millstone" finish!

The first crack is becoming worn, and can be greasy in the wet. The second half of the route moves left up a series of ledges to an hanging arete, which has good holds. The finish is up steep rubble, take care! The belay is on a fence a long way back from the edge.
