Silver Fern

FA Derek Field & Giselle Fernandez (2018)
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Engaging slab moves on bullet stone. Scramble up a slanted refrigerator block (20 feet of 4th-class) to reach the first bolt. Then follow bolts up the cryptic face to a two-bolt chain anchor.

This line was first envisioned (and toproped) by Alistair Veitch and Ken Robinson. It is still possible to TR this route by scrambling to the top anchor via the left side of the crag. The shorter face just left of Silver Fern can be toproped at 5.7/8 - this line is referred to as "Southern Cross".

Location

This route takes a direct line on the tallest part of the Robinson sector. Look for the bolts!

Protection

5 bolts (3/8" Fixe SS wedge bolts)

Two-bolt chain anchor
