Rockfax Description
A tremendous pitch taking the steep wall to the left of Balas. Continuously pressing moves and an easy-to-fluff finish. © Rockfax

FA. Pete Gomersall 1985. Originally a bold A5. Climbed without bolts by Martin Berzins 1987. The bolts have been in and out over the years but are now in and likely to stay..

βeta: if the bolts were replaced "recently", they must not have been stainless, they're in a pretty rusty state right now.

βeta: definately worth 7b+ if you go all the way to the top. Only 7b to the lower belay.
