38m, 2 pitches. A very pleasant outing with lots of variety. Start at a V-groove in the buttress front. The start has the 5b move but the fantastic second pitch feels the harder of the two. 1) 5b, 18m. Thrutch up the groove to a crack (thread). Move left over a roof then right onto the face. Ascend a deep crack to the fault-line. 2) 5a, 20m. Gain the wall above and take a crack to a bulge. Pass this and climb slabs to a small exit-corner finishing rightwards. © ROCKFAX

Cruised the 5b move but got pumped higher up on pitch 1. Lovely pitch but a little dusty. Second pitch was nails - good lead Brian!

Advice for future ascensionists on the 1st pitch: follow the holds, avoid the choss.

surely one of the best (if not the best) E1s on the Ruckle. Brilliant, sustained, well-protected climbing on both pitches.

Bailed on the lead of P2 so ended up seconding both pitches. Nice route mind.
