Title: Rosehearty? As good as it sounds?
Post by: RichK on September 24, 2013, 11:42:28 am: Any knowledge on Rosehearty? Odd that it isn't in Scottish Rock, just wondering if its any good?

Looks appealing from this; http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=1914 (http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=1914)

Any other low level suggestions in the area worth visiting (trad or sport) other than Dunkeld & Craeg Dubh.

See reply on UKC and be warned it only gets a few hours of essential drying sunshine on the main walls at this time of year.

Scottish Rock totally ignored the NE, nothing east of Ballater or north of Glen Clova - both good low level alternatives btw (conditions dependant) - what grades you looking for?
