About Plum Buttress (OS):
One of the most impressive pieces of rock in Derbyshire! The climbs are almost all classics, Big Plum and Sirplum, just to name a couple. About 20 routes at 200 feet, E1 and upwards, with one classic VS. The climbing is very "out there", northwest facing and exposed, great for a summer's evening to round out the day. Should exhaust you completely. |
