South Face

South Face (219 081) Alt 710m South facing
This is the pleasant wall, which extends up and right from the main slabs of Round How. It catches the sun all day; the rock is solid, quick drying and wonderfully rough. In the centre of the wall is a prominent flake, with a wide crack on its right side at head height. The start of the routes are referenced from this point.

Descent. The large belay block can be used as an abseil point if gear is left, the 20 metre abseil can be done on one rope.

Undercarriage Wall

217 077 Alt 750m north-west facing
A small, steep wall lying a few hundred metres above the point where the "short cut" footpath to Broad Crag col (For the Scafell Pike grockles) leaves the Corridor Route. The remains of an aircraft undercarriage lies at the base of the crag, the rest of the aircraft, including two engine blocks, lie on the grassy rake above the wall. There are some delightfully rough, clean slabs to the left of the wall.
