Rockfax Description
Good but spaced gear and a hard-to-clip peg. On the upper slab, thin moves left gain a finishing groove. Lower off the next route to avoid a loose top-out. © Rockfax

βeta: Some seriously worryingly large loose blocks towards the top of the final exit groove before the anchor. Avoid yarding on them (despite how relievingly positive they are)
