955m, 16 pitches. This route ascends a lower 245m buttress, grades of the technical pitches are 4c,5a,4c,5b,4c,5b, then 350m of scrambling to the upper buttress, about grade 3, with interesting route finding, then the upper 360m buttress with grades of the technical pitches at 4c/5a, 4b,4b,5a,4b. Lower buttress is an enjoyable route in its own right and descent can be found by following a narrow ledge round to the Stairway to Heaven path. Ascent of the complete route in a day is an not inconsiderable challenge.. Would possibly suit an alpine grade of around TD
