20m. The right-hand tufa is hard to reach and pumpy there after. Has become popular to finish on the left, before the upper tufa, easier but still 7c+. © ROCKFAX

cool route but would rather forget about the excessive number of redpoints and days it took to actually bag it (especially the rp which ended with a fall from the flakes/jugs(!) after all the hard stuff). Surprise, surprise, felt easy 2nd rp today and was static on the mono move for the first ever time - grrr!
