The Academy
Description:
12m wall near the South Peak with an open East aspect. Four bolted puzzles increase in difficulty and steepness from right to left; all face climbing which asks for a bit of study before giving up its secrets. Rock is sound and falls are clean. Left-hand routes share a rap anchor; right-hand routes share another.
Directions:
View on MapApproach as for East Wall, then continue past the Far East up a steep rough trail to climber's right. Trail trends up and right past the top access, then turns the corner at a fallen tree to beneath The Academy. Can also approach from the South Peak by descending 50m but harder to find from above.
