Torwood - Tappoch Roofs - Bird Brain Roof

 


Bird Brain Roof is the smaller roof just before Reeky Roof.

Bird Brain Traverse, 6b. Traverse the entire lip of the roof from the left side corner, all the way to finish with an easy mantle at the extreme right hand side. 

Bird Brain, 6b. Crouch start at the back of the roof. Move to good holds in the roof to reach the lip. Then traverse rightwards as per Bird Brain Traverse.

 

Tit, 6a. Bird Brain Roof right hand side –crouch start at the back of the roof both hands on the pilar looking feature. Make awkward moves left to good holds in the roof, then to good holds on the lip. Mantle to top out.

 

Wren, 7a. Bird Brain Roof right hand side –crouch start at the back of the roof both hands on the pilar looking feature. Dyno to the lip then mantle to top out.

 

Chaffinch, 6b. Bird Brain Roof right hand side - Can be done statically if you are tall. Crouch start on the thin undercling edge slightly right to the pilar feature. Launch to the lip, then mantle a top out.
