Must have ranked as one of the hardest sectors of trad climbing at the time these routes were being opened!

Approach

It is possible to down scramble Cold Feet (it is recommended to abseil this) to access Planet Clair, Satelite, Flames and Instant or set your rapp. above them.

‍

To access the rest of the crag, set your own anchor and rapp in.
