Atlantic Crag

Start: Just left around the corner from the Oddshouters overhang there is a short crack. This is 4 meters to the right of the corner/chimney of Africa Corner.

1. ‍18m '18': Pull up into the crack. At the first ledge traverse to the right of the nose, around the corner and up to stance below the big overhang.‍
2. 20m '14': Traverse two meters right until it is possible to climb an ill-defined crack for one or two meters. Traverse left on the lip of the overhang to the tip of the nose. Climb straight up the nose to Upper Africa Ledge.‍
3. 3m '11': Climb the 3m high wall at the back of the ledge and traverse to the right to a large block with a well-defined crack above it
4. ‍30m '14': Climb up the crack to a stance. Step right, climb the open book until the lay¬¨‚â†back ends, move to the right and climb up the face to a ledge under the overhang. The stance is to the right in a corner. (This pitch was originally split in two).‍
5. 12m '15': Traverse to the right around the corner, move up (don't try to balance up the first few meters), step left and then use flakes to climb up about8m to a stance on the left.‍
6. 8m '18': From the stance traverse to the right with hands at the level of the overhang to a bottomless recess. Pull into this recess. Stance 5 meters above.
7. After a short traverse to the right a few grade 9 pitches complete the climb.
