30m. The section of this climb above the Nimrod optional belay was resuscitated and led in 2021 (starting up Thornifixion). High in the grade & drillhole gear required. Between the groove of Nimrod and the open bay taken by Scorpion is a stepped depression capped by a slight bulge. Follow ledges up the depression, drillholes for gear. At the bulge, place a poor cam up left under a flake and another poor cam in a shothole on the right. Step boldly and delicately up, then right to eventually reach better holds. Continue direct to a drillhole strike on the right of a nose and place gear. Work leftwards up and over the nose and gain the top of the Nimrod ramp, peg. Swing left on steep rock and pull confidently over the roof. Step right and finish up Nimrod.
