What shapes this crag

Sun
Does not reach the face today.
Sea
Runs along the face, funnels in the inlet, counted at 1.5 times: 3.9 m at the wall.
Tide
Grip pulls the rock temperature harder towards the sea's, and counts spray from a 2 m sea rather than 2.5 m.
Seepage
None noted.
Birds
No information. Grip does not know whether birds nest here.
