37m. A good jug-hauling expedition on mostly spooky holds, taking a leftward trending line of weakness. Start 8m up the rocky gangway leading up left. Head straight up the wall past a detatched pointed block to a ledge. Traverse left then, climb direct up a rib to eventually gain a peg and big spike. Move up and leftwards to gain a big black hole. pull over the overlaps and finish up the groove above.

Exciting climbing on dubious holds and quite run-out. Maybe E3 if them holds are as loose as I feared.

Cool, hollow holds throughout and pretty bold
