Upper Tier, North Stack, Gogarth

The Upper Tier of Gogarth is situated in the North Stack area. It can be accessed, without abseiling, by descending a steep gully. The routes start above sea level. 

Today, we climbed 'Emulator' E1 5b ***, which is excellent climbing up a groove/corner, marked by a slabby wall on its left-hand side (see below).
