one of the best routes at the cuttings
Vince McNally - Lead RP - 11/Jul/12 with Nick

Very under rated. It's totally awesome if you like your routes technical. Packed full of trick moves which make it do-able at 7a+. Short but probably more hard climbing than most of the routes on the main crag. Sixth go, third redpoint. My 1,100th route!
