South Coast - Herpin Rock Area - Excalibur Buttress Prospector 27m (89ft)

A forceful lead up the huge overhanging wall right of Excalibur. Surprisingly, jugs abound, and (with the pegs pre-placed) the protection is fine. Start 5 metres right of the corner, beneath a cutaway. Move onto the left rib of the cutaway. Immediately swing right and pull past the apex of the cutaway (pre-placed Rock 1 in apex: removed) to jugs and a rest. Climb easily to a good nut slot (Rock 5); move up and swing left to the point where the wall rears up dramatically. Make a few hard moves, before improving holds lead to a ledge. Exit easily up the gully on the left (Three peg runners were pre-placed in the upper leaning section and removed).
