About Trowbarrow Quarry (OS):
|
A good quarry that looks like a desolate lunar landscape. There are over 100 routes here, at all grades, mostly easier though, with most in the Diff to E3 range. Varies from 50 to 120 feet tall, generally higher though. Faces in all directions and very quick to dry. Worth a visit, a must for the HVS climber. |
