While having a handful of 3 and 4 star routes, Blaze will always be a crag in-between Lower Crag and Main Crag - your progression from Lower to Main has Blaze, on the way. The easy routes on the right have a steep, insecure base (for the belay).
Having said that, the routes are good enough to merit a visit and particularly if the other two crags are crowded.
