Hanging Knotts

Page: 241   GR: 245 073   

The left-hand section of Hanging Knotts overlooks the left (E) end of Angle Tarn, and is more worthwhile! Its lower section comprises a steep, impressive compact wall (still unclimbed).
To its immediate left , a sheet-like pillar of rock gives the only route so far!

Grin Ding Groove

 22m VS-

 

Start 8 metres up and left of the steep, compact wall at a left-curving groove above a small gully; cairn. Interesting climbing following a good line.
(4b). Climb a rib, then the left-curving groove to a ledge on the left. Continue up the groove to a step right at its top; from where awkward scrambling gains the top.
