South Coast - Mont Herault Subsidiary Gully

Kraken

Climb the short clean corner.

This route takes a central line up the golden topped wall opposite the black The Escalator cliff. Climb the steep slabby wall on the left until moves…

A poor route up the higher tier of the gully. At the end of the main ledge is a ramp with prominent white streaks to the left.…

Start at the foot of the ramp on Kelp. Climb gently overhanging cracks on the left until moves rightward gain a good ledge below an open corner/crack.…

An enjoyable route up the chimney at the back of the gully. Start on the ledge above and right of the gully floor. Climb to a roof,…

A fun pitch with good gear. Bridge up the ramp a few moves, swing left into a crack and layback over a hanging undercut flake above. Finish…
