Description
This zone has a special feeling because of its unique setting tucked away down in a small valley. It has seen a resurgence with many new hard problems and is now considered one of the classic areas!
History
It was found by Cooper Roberts in 2005 but only developed later that season by a group of Austrians. Over the years many new lines have been open, most of them being hard!

The path is easy to follow. Don't be alarmed when the path veers back to the asphalt road. It will soon turn back heading to the sector itself :)
